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

Terroristic threats

Freedom of speech does not apply to:

Conspiracy

Why do so many autistic adults deal with self-hatred?

Child pornography

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.

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.

No freedom is absolute.

How can one justify in Sweden that total subsidies for public green energy initiatives being approximately 8.2 billion SEK per year? Electric cars at market price typically cost an average of 500,000 SEK which is above household budgets.

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.

Revenge porn

Threats of violence

What's a joke you haven't used yet, but are dying to share?

Perjury

Revealing classified information

False advertising

As an atheist don't you really feel fear for committing sins which are not violating national laws?

Fraud

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.

Insider trading

Republican Trump is a billionaire, president, won't be held accountable for multiple felonies, and pretty much has whatever he wants. So why is he always whining and crying about stupid, pointless stuff? Is he incapable of happiness?

HIPAA violations

Insurrection
