    Defamation, fraud, hate speech, harassment, collusion, confidentiality, incitement…

    No reasonable person actually thinks that free speech is an unlimited right. Plenty of kinds of speech are viewed as too harmful to be legal. The right is well understood to be about political speech only, and even then the edge cases can be hard to pin.

    Anyone who claims to be an absolutist on free speech is insane or absolutely full of shit.
