Yours is a reasonable view. But pragmatically (and in the spirit of MT's argument) the Parler case is not the touchstone for regulation of Big Tech--the case is a sure loser.

If we really want to dilute the power of these entities we need legal and comprehensive protection of our personal data. Europe did this in 2018 with GDPR. Try selling any use AWS or Google to many European companies and see what happens. While the law has some faults, it is an admirable model to protect what I think should be a universal human right of Privacy (as the GDPR puts it, the 'Right to be Forgotten').
