I don't blame platforms like Facebook, Twitter, etc for removing content subjectively. After all, they need to control spam.
Unfortunately things have been stepped up a notch recently and Tier 1 ISPs are now engaged in site blocking themselves. Even if you run all of your own server, these ISPs can prevent customers from connecting to your web site. Only around 5 Tier 1 ISPs control access to all of the internet.
This was the situation Net Neutrality was designed to prevent, ironically gutted by Republicans in 2016.
