https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pruneyard_Shopping_Center_v._R...

In American constitutional law, this case established two important rules:

under the California Constitution, individuals may peacefully exercise their right to free speech in parts of private shopping centers regularly held open to the public, subject to reasonable regulations adopted by the shopping centers

under the U.S. Constitution, states can provide their citizens with broader rights in their constitutions than under the federal Constitution, so long as those rights do not infringe on any federal constitutional rights

So far the court has rejected the application of Pruneyard to the online space, but it might change with more sympathetic plantiffs
