Yes, that seems to be their fallback position, a package deal if you will. They are pragmatists, without principles, and don't know anything about objective rights.
The real question - as pointed out by the article - is that they try to claim the privileges of being a service provider while also trying to monitor and police their content. They have to choose either one or the other.
Are Google, Facebook, Twitter and their ilk beholden to First Amendment acquiescence? "But don’t I have any freedom of speech?” “In your own house. Not in mine.” “Don’t I have a right to my own ideas?” “At your own expense. Not at mine.” “Don’t you tolerate any differences of opinion?” “Not when I’m paying the bills.” ― Ayn Rand, Atlas Shrugged
"But don’t I have any freedom of speech?”
“In your own house. Not in mine.”
“Don’t I have a right to my own ideas?”
“At your own expense. Not at mine.”
“Don’t you tolerate any differences of opinion?”
“Not when I’m paying the bills.”
