> This still doesn't give the government the right to ban them. The government has a long history of regulating the transmission of speech. The First Amendment protects us against them regulating the content of speech. For example, campaign finance laws dictate who can fund speech in certain situations, but they don't dictate what a candidate actually says. That said, the First Amendment is limited by "compelling government interest," so there are no absolutes. We are, as we have been for a few centuries, at the mercy of the whims of the Supreme Court. There are no absolutes, and the Supreme Court can interpret anything however they want.
