Re: controversial or unsavory-- how about LEGAL / NORMAL Of course they should. From the New York Times article on the subject:
"Professor Wu pointed to a historical analogy. In the 19th century, he said, Western Union, the telegraph company, engaged in discrimination, based on the political views of people who sought to send telegrams. “One of the eventual reactions was the common carrier rule,†Professor Wu said, which required telegraph and then phone companies to accept communications from all speakers on all topics."
This is the exact same issue, except now the text is on a cell phone screen instead of a piece of paper. |
