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:
Harvard scientists issue 'toxic' warning over 'hidden dangers' of protein powders - LADbible
HIPAA violations

Trade secrets
Child pornography
Conspiracy
Insider trading
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.
