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

Trade secrets

Fraud

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.

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.

Freedom of speech does not apply to:

Perjury

Is Taylor Swift aware of the fact that she’s naturally seductive?

Conspiracy

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

Why do guys have better skin than women even though women use more product?

Revealing classified information

Terroristic threats

Insurrection

Why are breasts attractive?

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.

Revenge porn

False advertising

What do you think hell is like?

Insider trading

Child pornography

And much, much more.

I’m wondering about attachment and transference with the therapist and the idea of escape and fantasy? How much do you think your strong feelings, constant thoughts, desires to be with your therapist are a way to escape from your present life? I wonder if the transference serves another purpose than to show us our wounds and/or past experiences, but is a present coping strategy for managing what we don’t want to face (even if unconsciously) in the present—-current relationships, life circumstances, etc. Can anyone relate to this concept of escape in relation to their therapy relationship? How does this play out for you?

No freedom is absolute.
