Freedom of speech does not apply to:
Conspiracy
Why did my ex-narcissist move so fast with his new supply marriage engagement moving in, etc.?
False advertising
That’s what it is. You have no right to use other people’s stuff. If people let you use their stuff, they can tell you how you can use it, and they can tell you to stop using it any time they want.
You have freedom to travel. If I loan you my car, I can tell you not to take it out of town, because it’s mine, you have no right to use it, and if I give you permission to use it I can tell you what you can and can’t do with it.
Terroristic threats
Perjury
Revealing classified information
No freedom is absolute.
If you’re wondering why free speech doesn’t apply to the internet, it’s because you have no right to use other people’s stuff for free.
