Is there a description for this apart from cancel culture?

Businesses choosing to no longer work with people is not cancel culture, neither is being banned from social media for breaking their rules, nobody gets banned for an opinion, people get banned for violating the rules they agreed to.

‘Cancel culture’ has been invented by people who aren’t happy with their opinions or their actions being challenged, the people who cry about being ‘cancelled’ have the loudest voices, why? Because they haven’t been cancelled, for most of them it gives them a bigger platform, ironically the loudest anti-‘cancel culture’ voices are the ones now calling to #defundthebbc because they don’t like what’s on there, it’s not a real things, people facing rebuttal or consequences for their actions or words is not a social construct, it’s real life and they just don’t like it.
