If freedom of speech is absolute, how come it's not applied for private spaces and for the Internet?

Insurrection

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.

Perjury

Is it right to visit any shrine or tomb in Islam?

Fraud

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.

Conspiracy

Can you explain the difference between an ego, soul, mind, and consciousness?

No freedom is absolute.

Trade secrets

Child pornography

So I’m getting piano lessons and my teacher wants me to get an upright piano instead of a keyboard. An upright piano is way above my price range, so what do I do? And what’s the difference between an upright piano and a keyboard?

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.

Freedom of speech does not apply to:

Revealing classified information

How long will it take Christian president-elect Donald J. Trump to restore our nation's moral values?

Insider trading

And much, much more.

You have freedom of speech. If I loan you my computer, I can tell you not to use it for certain things, 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.

Why do black people prefer thick, curvy women?

Revenge porn
