-- Not too long ago, I saw a squib that social media companies were officially warned not to continue censorship. Perhaps government will go forward to treat social media companies as they treat public communication companies under FCC? --

I agree with the gist of that. My point was I don't see AT&T as a social media company, so don't see the link implied by "AT&T>GOOG/FB/etc."

To my mind, it implies that social media may find itself regulated as a public communications company. Don’t know how the process works, though. FCC has that power? Who/what defines a corporation as subject to regulation? Is it simply a unilateral government action defined by size<>function?
