There are numerous people who have put in lots of money, time, and effort in promoting their Twitter, Facebook, and YouTube accounts. For years they were allowed to do their thing so long as they didn't advocate criminal behavior.

Now all of a sudden they get put in detention or kicked off entirely.

I wonder if there is a precedent for something like an easement. For example, if a rancher allows hikers and hunters to cross his property to get into a state park, and that rancher allows this to happen for over 7 years, then an easement is said to have been created. Now the rancher cannot all of a sudden decide that no one can cross his property to get into the park.

Have Twitter, Facebook, and YouTube created easements by allowing people to use their facilities for years? And is it now a violation of those 'easements' to shut them down with little or no justification?
