BP is a privately owned company that does not need to abide by environmental regulations. If you don't like oil spills, then start your own company to clean it up!

Is Twitter a publisher, or a platform? If they pick and chose what to edit, they are a publisher. And publishers are not entitled to Section 230 immunity.
