Completely agree. While I'm usually against Government interference in private enterprise, these guys are too powerful and I think anti-trust legislation may well be in order. There is absolutely NO chance of competing platforms being offered. The've got the market locked down.
Additionally, you can't claim to simply be a platform (and as such not responsible for the content of posts) if you edit, or restrict what posts users can make. Now they have accepted responsibility for the content of posts as they remove some they deem inappropriate.

I've been making that argument for awhile now. But they want to be able to control content, and still have liability protection.

Well, they probably bit off more than they can chew.

Tonight's Trump townhall on NBC: Could Savannah Guthrie's voice be any more irritating? How did she become a broadcast personality with that voice?

Is the moderator being as assaultive to Biden on ABC? Nope! George Stephanopoulos is acting like a Biden surrogate and spoon-feeding him.

Guthrie hasn't let a single audience member ask a question, and we're almost 20 minutes into it.

They are allowing some questions now. The main take away from it is that President Trump has become so defensive he, at times, comes across as abrasive. I hear the questions and think to myself, oh, easy answer. But then Trump kind of goes off in a different direction.

I think once a story if thoroughly debunked by all the actual eyewitnesses that were there, it should be an offense punishable by some huge $$$$ fine to re post it slanderously.

Trump’s attorney Rudy Giuliani has sent allegedly sexually explicit materials involving underage girls from Hunter Biden laptop to Delaware state police.

And just right before the debate.

Risk:

This could backfire if Hunter commits suicide and Biden gets the sympathy vote. Then Trump and company are the meanies.

Don't worry- in this environment, they'll probably arrest Rudy for the transmission of pics of underage girls, and link it to POTUS.... while ignoring biden for taking/having/storing them.
