Amazing how some platform choosing what it hosts or not makes everyone else mindless sheep. In particular, those people who criticize these platforms with some nuance, somehow, are mindless. Most especially those who defend the right to speech they don't personally subscribe to. What a bunch of assholes.
Privately owned public spaces on the internet and in meatspace are subject to laws, rights, and responsibilities which differ with your claims. Just like the inside of a private mall.
This is the same country with fake 4G and wants to set the standards and technology for 5G, which will bring us antennae in quantity to rival the sun-blotting telegraph cables of yesteryear, but will be dumbed down to 4.5G tech (i.e., 3.7G) so our carriers will look competitive and innovative. Sometimes. On paper. Because we said so, dammit.
I was actually very pleasantly surprised recently in receiving an email from my bank suggesting some actually good password practices. One item included something that i always do: Answer your "security questions" without any regard for the question. I was shocked, to say the least. What is your mother's maiden name? Wrenchgoingstravinskyxiexieburger.
And this is one of the dumbest things with passwords. A low character limit is bad enough, but it's even more fun when they do not tell you what the limit is...
Sure it's radical. You are asking the internet to go back to 1998 or pre-web, more or less, before businesses took everything over.
Of course, you could be more radical and propose that actual human beings should be on equal footing any time they deal with a fictitious business person. Any form of contract may be negotiated, and data about you generated by yourself is yours to control (barter, offer, withdraw), which would be the relevant upshot here.
but the better route to victory against Aloha Poke Co. is almost certainly legal arguments over its trademark more generally.
While true, a) not everyone is, or can be, part of a trademark litigation, and b) like most anything else, the events have wider meaning outside your particular core focus, in this case some stupid business bullshit.
I only mention this, since this point returns to mention itself. It's all pretty tautological anyway.

The current settlement system is not a low cost way to settle disputes, and is entirely skewed against the small inventor. You know, the ones that the troll farms attempt to extort by claiming the patents or actual products of others infringe on their overly-broad patents never used to produce an actual thing.
How is it that you imagine the aggressor is always in the right, and somehow represents "small inventors".
We are the Nazi Socialist Anarchists. We are the NSA. We are not legion. We are tiny, aberrant scrutiny-avoiders. (We are also probably Communist-Papists, but we argue over the manifesto a lot. Will let you know how it shakes out.)
Anarchists now believe giving governments more power is a thing to strive for. Film at 11. Now with more weird and contradictory assumptions pulled out of thin air.
Considering that Canada does not share a border with Mexico, the answer would be no, CBP does not mean "Canadian Border Patrol".
Even if Canada were involved in such an extreme case of overreach as to have checkpoints at the Mexican border, US court decisions regarding rights violations of particular individuals would not be what is happening. There would be something far, far more interesting afoot.
Also, there is no "Canadian Border Patrol", unless you are referring to the entertainment industry, in which case ... well geez, just never mind.

One person cannot "vote in a way that works in the electoral college", and said college affects two offices only.
In what "way" can one vote which accomplishes what you suggest? And just where do you think you are going with those goalposts?
