> You don't expect them to turn off somebody's power because they are listening to the wrong kind of music. But you would expect them to turn off somebody's power if they were, e.g., using that power for a marijuana farm or torturing kittens with electrical shocks and standing outside their house shouting "I'M USING THIS ELECTRICITY FOR CRIMINAL MEANS, YOU KNOW". |

A corporation deciding to cut off my power without due process because they think there may be a marijuana farm – which may or may not be true – does not sound like something that's desirable.
Either way, I don't think analogies like this are very helpful, because the situations are too different, and the analogy doesn't really help clarify anything IMO.
