You need to understand difference between communication that is meant to be public from one that is meant to be private.
Law makes clear distinction.
Piece of paper isn't common carrier. If I write a note to my wife and give it myself it is private because I wanted and expected it private. If I taped it to a billboard it means I no longer expect it private and it is public.
Despite phone companies being common carriers (and thus being required to carry communications without censoring them), the Supreme Court has made it clear that people should have no reasonable expectation of privacy when they relay communications through a pay phone. The reasoning was that you give up your right to privacy when you involve a third party to your conversation. See Katz v. United States, 389 U.S. 347 (1967).
So the two can coexist.
Only common carriers are forced to carry speech unimpeded, regardless of its content. Expectation of privacy is irrelevant to common carrier status. The former is about whether it can be intercepted. The latter is about whether it can be impeded.
If you’ve never moderated anything halfway popular you have no idea what “uncensored” means in 2021.
It isn’t early 90s usenet. It’s endless spam, porn, etc
Not sure why you brought the law up, as far as I know what FB is doing is 100% legal.
I can't think of any reason one would be considered private and the other not.
