A good reminder in the article about something a lot of folks here tend to forget:

> Finally, contrary to what many in Congress have been saying, social media platforms and other internet intermediaries have their own First Amendment rights to decide how they moderate users’ speech. They are not “state actors” and do not have an obligation under the First Amendment to allow all user speech on their platforms.

Private platforms do not have an obligation, legal, moral, or otherwise, to host or boost your harmful opinions and mis/disinformation campaigns.

They ought to be regulated as common carriers above a certain size IMO justified by network effects.

Which is too say I agree with you that they don't currently have a legal obligation but I think we should change that.
