Restrictions on speech need to be balanced by freedom of speech
If the things people say on private platforms is considered public speech, then this speech needs to have the same human rights protection that normal public speech has.
Focusing only on restricting people's speech, without any balance to ensure that people are free to say legitimate things, is what dictatorial governments normally do.
If the law extends to speech hosted at private companies, then the human rights protection for freedom of speech should extend there too. Or else you end up with privatized dictatorship, where governments subcontract dictatorship to private entities to get around democracy and human rights protections.
