Neither an ISP nor phone company has a feed algorithm or spam prevention* as a central part of its operations. These are key to the usability of any social network. And they are inherently biased. Any such organization also has to take money, so ads are also key to their operations, and they have taken political stands on ads too. The attempted comparison to utility companies is not compelling. * arguably they do now by limiting "scam calls"
