is there any such thing as a “public” business?

With all the businesses refusing service to people without mask, and now the Twitter ban, I’m having trouble thinking of a service or business that wouldn’t be eligible to refuse someone. Am I overthinking this?

Well you cant deny anyone service based on race, gender, sexual orientation, etc. regardless of what kind of business you are.

Other than that, utilities are an example of businesses for public service. You have gas, electric, and water companies in charge of providing that stuff but they cant just write their own terms and conditions and the refuse service to someone based on that because theyve been deemed too important to let any private company control. Which brings me to the idea out that people have floated that tech companies like twitter should be treated as utilities too because the argument is in modern society, access to information and what not is becoming more and more essential to modern life.
