Which is relevant to the question of whether a private company should decide legal cases against citizens how exactly?

Well, yes, that is what that means. They have a right to not be hindered by the state in publishing their opinion (unless hate speech, essentially).

Declining to publish isn't the same as deciding a legal case. Nobody has a right to be published by another party.
