The mega-corporations that herd people together and use their people herd to sell ad slots are not part of a democracy.

Public outrage is what these companies are responding to. If they didn't think the majority of their users wanted this, they wouldn't do it. For example, you don't see Parler banning the domestic terrorists organizing on the platform, do you?
