Correct. But then they cannot enjoy the protections that come with being a "Public Square". You don't get to choose "OK I'm going to be a publisher/editor of content, but I will enjoy the protections of being a Public Square". Currently all of these companies are breaking the law, it's a known thing, but nobody is doing anything about it, same for the Logan act and many other laws that we have that are broken all the time and nobody enforces them.
If you're a publisher the size of Twitter of contact, then it's much harder to create a monopoly, because you need to spend countless millions of hours per week editorial editing content to make sure that none of it is illegal/defamatory/etc. Having the protections of a public square well only pretending to actually be one is fraud.
