> there is about 70 years of established case law

I have stated multiple times that I am aware that CC laws do not currently apply to these situations.

I am instead saying that these laws could be slightly changes, because, philosophical, there isn't much of a difference between a phone calls, and tweets or FB messages.

> is borderline absurd.

Apparently people don't think it is absurd to force phone companies to carry most phone calls.

And IMO, there isn't much difference, philosophically between a phone call and tweets or a FB message, even if our laws haven't been changed slightly to apply to them yet.
