I just wish we reserved “censorship” to refer to state use of force against speech acts, and used other words for business choice not to platform certain speech acts or social shunning of kinds of speech. The conflation totally mixes up the moral landscape.

Business refusal to platform is their control of their speech. Enforcing their right to deplatform is how you enforce their right to say what they want. Forcing them to platform is censorship.
