I don’t get why people defend censorship by powerful/monopolistic companies

I won't get that either.

But unlike the Government, which is at least, supposed to care about us when making their policies,
the companies don't. Whatever gets them more money^[No idea about X though, it seems to love losing everything] is what wins.

Well, said companies will realise in time^[once the Federation evens (or at least smooths down a bit) the playing field] when it hurts them where they care about and will have to consider changing stances.
