Twitter, Google, Facebook and Apple are monopolies that are most certainly the public square. "Market Allocation Schemes" where companies collude to fix prices and rig markets are explicitly illegal, and I don't see why the collusion of monopolies to "fix" speech is any different.

If we lived in a country with a functional government these monopolies would have been broken up long ago and the internet would be regulated as the public utility that it is.
