I definitely care a whole lot more when an ISP or a web hosting service drops someone it dislikes. Those types of services really ought to be regulated as utilities (ISPs are, to a degree). This is, I think, a case where legislation hasn't caught up with technology. Living history is never as easy as reading it, and it took decades for lawmakers to catch up with the traditional utilities as well.
