Interesting question here: At what point, if ever, does a privately-owned enterprise become deeply enough ingrained in society that it should morph into something publicly controlled? At one end of the spectrum, we'd argue youtube can set whatever terms it wants to its service. At the other, we'd argue that youtube has become so ubiquitous in the business models of so many that they have detrimentally relied on youtube forever showing their content. It has become, in effect, like a utility, subject to regulatory oversight.
Complex question.
