P.S. it would be wise for heavily invested users like Jones to pay for custom or "first class user" contracts that are more like a long-term lease than a license, instead of depending on the click-wrap nobody reads that gives the platform all the rights.

Homesteading can only be applied to resources nobody owns. Companies own disk space, computing power and bandwidth, so no homesteading can be applied.

Wrong.

Care to explain?

Study some property law.

Do you mean natural law or mafia-issued law? Link maybe?

Prescriptive easements are a millenia-old feature of the property rights libertarians cherish, and the Lockean theory of property rights is also a foundation of liberty.

It depends on how well we understand property law, vs. how much we push a very oversimplified version of property law.

That's true for all ideologies, alas.

As Bentham pointed out Property is a relationship not an object. The institutions & instruments of absolute binary (either/or) property rights are incompatible with an analogue world

At what point does it constitute 'deplatforming'? If I sign up and behave like a jackass with 1 subscriber, and get banned, am I still being 'deplatformed'?
-
Prescriptive easements usually kick in after frequent use for a certain time period, e.g. five years is typical, but if you have a long gap of inactivity (e.g, more than one year) the calendar can reset, the five year time starts over.
-
Other factor is how much you invested. Back to the property analogy, I let you build a bridge on my property to give you access to yours. Even if it's only been a month, you can't decide to not let me use my bridge anymore. So, if someone invested a lot in their youtube channel..
-
That bridge would normally come with a contract though.
-
Contracts are incomplete though. You can't think of everything and if it's not specified in the contract you have to fall back on property law.
