Alex Jones doesn't even have a platform to share tin foil hat DIY instructions anymore.
It appears that Infowars, Jones' conspiracy theorizing website, has even been kicked off Pinterest after an inquiry from Mashable. The apparent removal comes after Jones' content was stripped from Facebook, YouTube, Apple, Spotify, and pretty much anywhere that isn't Twitter.
Yes, Jones proudly linked to his Pinterest — the site known for crafting tips and various pretty pictures — on the Infowars site, just above his plea for readers to free WikiLeaker Julian Assange. It featured a folder of "Alex Jones headshots," memes that questioned just what happened on 9/11, and quotes about perseverance superimposed over photos of lighthouses.

After several other social platforms kicked Jones off their sites, Pinterest looked like it could become Jones' last resort for peddling Sandy Hook-denying conspiracy theories. So Mashable emailed Pinterest to ask why the Infowars page still existed and, despite Mashable not getting a response, the page disappeared. Jones now only has Twitter to complain about being "banned from the internet," despite the fact that he has to use the internet to tweet that complaint.
