Original Note:
As the Supreme Court reiterated in 2019, private parties are not considered "state actors" for purposes of the First Amendment except in "a few limited circumstances." No caselaw suggests requests from a political campaign to a social media site falls within those exceptions. https://www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/18pdf/17-1702_h315.pdf
