Freedom of speech means freedom to speak. We're speaking freely right now, aren't we? And I didn't have to create a website or an ad or pay a graphic designer or any of the many things claimed in that Twitter thread.
- engineer_22 5y agoMaybe you don't pay to use the internet, but I do. If the government froze my bank account so I couldn't pay my phone bill, I wouldn't be free to speak to you right now.
- colburnmh 5y agoThat's not true. You just wouldn't be free to speak on this medium. I don't have the right to speak in the Queen's bedroom in Buckingham Palace, either. Neither of those things are significant limitations on the freedom of speech.
