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

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.

Insurrection

Revealing classified information

How do I stop my 12-year-old daughter from crying herself to sleep? I have punished her and she still does it.

Freedom of speech does not apply to:

Conspiracy

Threats of violence

How far back into your childhood can your remember and what is your favorite memory of that time?

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.

Fraud

Trade secrets

Why do I sweat so much after applying moisture or sun screen on my face? I have normal skin.

Revenge porn

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.

Child pornography

Has a conversation with someone who holds opposing political views ever caused you to change your own beliefs?

Perjury

Insider trading

Terroristic threats

What is a common thought that keeps people up at night? Why do some people experience this?

And much, much more.

No freedom is absolute.

Atheists claim that Earth is 10 billion years old, yet there are no fossils that old. What do you have to say for yourselves for lying?

HIPAA violations

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.
