How is this the right thing? Or the wrong thing for that matter? There are no utilities, common carriers not governmental agencies in play. This is an entirely contractual matter amongst civil parties. Everyone here is free to say what they want (so long as it’s not otherwise illegal), pursue a contractual agreement and engage (or not) the meta conversation regarding the context of the transaction.
Should this go terribly wrong for one party or another (such as, say, hosting speech that is libellous, threatening or otherwise contravened by law) they can engage in that public meta discourse as well. It will certainly be spoken about without or without them.
This is hardly the right thing. It isn’t the wrong thing either. It’s just a thing that, like all decisions, carries risks and responsibilities.
