It's even worse than that when you consider the power these social media companies have to influence public opinion. They are acting as a proxy of the governed and the governors.

This has long been what their media has been for, predating internet and the related technology. For the social media co's they've been playing a game of catch up, and largely have been losing. http://www.historyisaweapon.org/defcon1/bernprop.html …

Exactly! The state wants FB/Twitter to do its dirty work for them, without having any inconvenient democratic oversight.

I wonder if there has been any serious consideration of social media sites becoming regulated as public utilities...is that possible or even desirable?

Don't make Facebook/Twitter/Social Media like Amtrak. Extend Constitutional protections to them and the internet as a whole. How will you be able to interact with your congressperson if you've been deplatformed and depersoned? Your only definite form of contact via social media.

Without the help of the government these companies wouldn’t exist in the first place. Regulate them or shut them down.

Your missing something Brother. They always have been. Seeded by the likes of in-q-tel. Your government retains control of all tech seeded then appropriated for government use. And after BO decriminalized propaganda...we are paying for our own censorship, via tax dollars.
