I don’t like Google, Facebook and Twitter censoring speech based on their political bias, but they are not the government. They are private companies and what folks are using is in reality their property - their means of Internet publishing.

I also don’t like the bias and actual news censoring of the dominant media companies, but there again THEY ARE private corporations.

I don’t think I want courts turning private companies into de facto handmaidens of government “free speech” mandates, by the courts, the executive branch or Congress.

I would hope sooner or later public social & financial persuastion would get them to reform themselves.
