> Asking google to take down someones opinion about a business would be violating that persons first amendment right (assuming they are American)

ah, there it is. since Google is not the Government yet, them taking action would not violate that person's first amendment right, and asking Google to do so would not violate that person's first amendment right

I wonder what the person I initially replied to thinks

its hard to tell which people just completely misunderstand the first amendment, and which people are talking about a "philosophical" free speech that they made up on the spot to bolster their point
