That's a contradiction. I personally have utility for the public. So do private companies. You can't call these things public utilities without introducing a contradiction into the language. People who try to introduce contradictions into the language only do so because they are _motivated_ to do so, because they want to get something dishonestly. Another good example, besides the one we are discussing, is the idea that people now call whatever they want a "human right." That's a contradiction, because it's not necessarily the case that it's even _possible_ to _produce_ enough of whatever that thing is. Mangling the language is a crime against thought.
