An interesting survey. Not at all what could be concluded from social media data. Some points:
* The perceived importance of the freedom of speech does not notably differ from the perceived importance of other rights.
* Political alignment differentiates freedom of speech issues, but regardless of alignment, the majority is concerned about things like dis/-misinformation, election denial, incitement, etc.
* A clear majority sees hate speech as a serious problem.
* The First Amendment is widely misunderstood.
* All rights are pretty much seen as being under a threat.
* Only a small minority of people discuss news online.
* Only a very small minority has been a subject of content moderation.
* People want platforms to carry out moderation but no one really trusts platforms.
