> Corporate censorship dampens the spirit of free speech.

I agree!

> The spirit of free speech is defending the least defensible.

I also agree!

However, I personally believe that if corporate censorship has a meaningful impact on the freedom of speech in a society then the fundamental problem is the amount of influence said corporation has on that society. The issue is the size and influence of the private entity - society-altering censorship is just a more visible manifestation of the root problem.
