Ma Bell and Edison were eventually required to provide service to everyone whether they liked their customers' politics or not. The local newspaper was NOT required to print editorials it disliked. There's a difference between carriers and publishers. Twitter blocking users for political reasons is distasteful but probably similar to newspapers. I definitely care a whole lot more when an ISP or a web hosting service drops someone it dislikes. Those types of services really ought to be regulated as utilities (ISPs are, to a degree). This is, I think, a case where legislation hasn't caught up with technology. Living history is never as easy as reading it, and it took decades for lawmakers to catch up with the traditional utilities as well.

Those services were regulated to a degree but then the patriots got rid of it lol

You cant make this shit up.

Totally agree on that point, it's absurd and all we can do is smack our foreheads and laugh.

It’s really disingenuous to claim one side of the aisle loves everything it’s sides politicians do. Conservatives and Liberals strongly dislike most things that politicians do, this is the problem. When people then pretend that the opposing side loves everything it’s representatives do. We get a world where conservatives are all nazis and all lefties are commies. Carry on

Of course Sioux. My comment was implicitly directed towards those folks who supported such actions, not necessarily at everyone from one party or the other. I trust a reader to recognize such distinctions so we don't all have to write half a dozen disclaimers any time we want to say anything.
