Maybe a year or two ago I would have completely agreed with the public vs private argument, but the pace of change has clearly accelerated, and when private institutions can easily have just as much impact with their decisions as public institutions, the lines blur.

Private businesses can’t do a lot of things because they harm freedoms (civil rights act and its additions among others).
