At the risk of stating the obvious, it's the way pre-internet businesses work as well. Old-school media impose content-based restrictions. Your local TV station will not let you buy times in which you swear, your local bus company will not show ads with certain kinds of nudity, and your local newspaper will not run ads for prostitution. But these restrictions don't get much attention, because they've been around for a while and are part of the landscape, but moreover because you have to be willing to pay cash to run into them. Social media is different because they let people publish content for free, and so the cost of bad behavior is usually de minimis.
