I agree with the spirit of that ruling, that free speech equally requires the ability to receive information. But if we think that’s true, shouldn’t the same spirit apply to bans from social media platforms? Even if the law does not require the same of private companies, surely the same principles would apply?

It's not as simple as applying the same standard to private actors, because you should definitely have a strong and unreviewable right to ban sex offenders from your Minecraft server. Obviously there's a big difference between your personal server and a global platform, but the details and implications of that difference are complex debate I don't really want to get into here.
