It feels dirty to agree with an ISP on something. But even the worst corporations are on the right side of something from time to time I suppose.

      But internet is a service provided by a private company that’s not affiliated with the government. Free speech only applies to government actions.

          There is nothing in law to recognize the internet as a “public place”. Freedom of speech literally only protects your speech from governmental censorship. Simply does not apply online, no matter how much you want it to.

      You are not entitled to a platform, especially one privately-run.
