The First Amendment is about government censorship. The Bill of Rights is more like a Bill of government restrictions.

    So no private company can be held accountable for censorship? That's pretty messed up.

    This is one of those “technically true but functionally useless” arguments, and I hate arguing the other side here… Valve always has the option to stop using Visa and, I don’t know, have customers write out and physically mail checks or money orders.

    Obviously the number of customers who would do this is microscopic. It’s not a real thing anytime would ever do. But because the option exists, they aren’t technically making the content impossible to sell.
