Publicly traded just means individuals can buy stock in their company. They're not owned by "the public" like a taxpayer owned entity.
You think a publicly traded company offering services to the public working to enforce a one party state is the moral and legal equivalent of someone insulting your carpet color?
They're private actors with property rights. With very few exceptions (race, creed, age and sex) they can legally discriminate against anyone or anything they like, just as I can in my home.
In any other industry, yanking the rug out from under your customers like this will get you into hot water because it is by its very nature a fraudulent business practice.
Where's the fraud?
It is about every single big tech company working in unison to deprive half the country of its political voice.
Whether or not they're all working against your political ideology is interesting but not relevant. They're private companies, just like FR, and can be as politically biased as they like.
You just want the government to intervene on your behalf because these bad companies are being mean to you.
That's not a legitimate role for government. Get back to me when they break the law.
Big tech should be treated like the utilities. They are nothing like “Joe’s Restaurant”. And comparing them to your house is just absurd.
No one (except you) would think it was ok for a utility to cut off someone’s power because of their politics.
For that matter FR is thick with DU trolls and they aren’t banned unless they cross the same lines that get anyone tossed. And those rules are clearly spelled out up front, not arbitrarily applied to one person but not another as a matter of policy.
