I have said this before and will say it again they are on thin ice . Thomas agrees ,
Thomas argues that some digital platforms are "sufficiently akin" to common carriers like telephone companies. "A traditional telephone company laid physical wires to create a network connecting people," Thomas writes. "Digital platforms lay information infrastructure that can be controlled in much the same way."
Thomas argues that while private companies aren't subject to the First Amendment, common carriers are unique to other private businesses in that they do not have the "right to exclude." Thomas suggests that large tech platforms with substantial market power should be bound by the same restrictions. "If the analogy between common carriers and digital platforms is correct, then an answer may arise for dissatisfied platform users who would appreciate not being blocked: laws that restrict the platform's right to exclude,"
Now I am aware some of you do not like that or agree with it. However, There are many of us who agree. I bet many would change their tune in a hurry if they were suddenly fact checked or canceled because of the liberal views. I am in favor of letting people express their viewpoints.
