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

Perjury

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.

Freedom of speech does not apply to:

Why do the majority of feminists hate men (not all feminists)?

Child pornography

Terroristic threats

False advertising

Why do most men who date ugly women brag like it's some big accomplishment, when any guy can pull an ugly woman?

Trade secrets

Revealing classified information

HIPAA violations

Are women as visual as men are?

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.

Threats of violence

No freedom is absolute.

Can you show pictures of your penis, big or small?

Revenge porn

Conspiracy

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.

How do you confront your own family for not inviting you or leaving you out of things?

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

Fraud

If babies could write, what questions would they ask on Quora?

And much, much more.
