>> The idea that you can't deny service to an individual for their political views is a big shift
For common carriers that has been a longstanding policy, for example, telephone companies can't deny you service for things you say over the phone.
The fewer the viable alternatives to a service are, the more that makes sense.
The big shift is the exact opposite, that you would allow companies that run services with network effects to choose what messages are sent over their services while at the same time avoiding liability for the messages that are sent.
