      Indeed. To be a public square, it has to be operated or controlled by the government, so your one sentence is flawed on its face. I tried to educate you, you are welcome to ignore me.

        Legally, yes, they’re private companies that are not beholden to the First Amendment.

        Practically, they are the de facto town square and should be treated as such.
