A similar example would be a road. Mobile phones are so ingrained in our every day lives, they shouldn’t be that controlled by a single private entity. The same way Facebook and the like shouldn’t be able to unidirectionally control what is and is not publishable on their platforms, because after a certain size these cute little “private company decides who it wants to do service with” rules simply break down.

Like, honestly, do you think it is fair that google and apple could potentially display any sort of message to pretty much the whole of society? They are crazy powerful entities to the point where they are a new pillar of power next to the standard Legislature, Executive, Judiciary.

Haha yes! And toll roads are very common, people do gripe about them, but they are generally accepted. Plus local businesses, that are connected by the roads to their customers, pay taxes to the municipality which built the roads.
