Would it be a stretch to suggest 'the government'?

Outside of removing things like CSAM wouldn't it be illegal for the government to tell social media how it must moderate?

I'm from the US though so not an expert or it's laws.

DMCA and court orders in the US. Many more in other countries.

True. Still nothing about banning or shadow banning though, or even needing to tell users they do so.

Telephone companies are forced by the government to carry certain speech.

Similar laws could be expanded to other major communication platforms.
