Is Facebook a public forum or a publisher?

[Remodeling Maidiac]

One of those things deserves government protection & regulation while the other does not.

If Facebook continues to alter/delete/remove users then they have essentially become publishers and should lose all government protection. One could argue that they should be broken up but i wouldn't go that far.
Why did the left support forcing someone to bake that cake but not forcing Facebook to leave that post up?

The congressional loophole created for antisocial media companies should be repealed first, then assess from there.

If they continue with the political bias, then yes they should either be declared publishers and/or the entire internet should be declared equal to the public square.

Someone should create a alternative to FaceCensor and TwitterCensor

Facebook has decided to be an editor, so they MUST be regulated as such.

Simple. For-profit bakers bake for Lucre not Morals on a for-profit basis in Public not Private accommodation.
