Two questions that affect free speech regulation:
- Should discussions of illegal activities be restricted? If you are planning such an activity? If you are discussing it in the abstract? If you are discussing or writing fiction?
- What is a "fact"? What is "misinformation"? Should misinformation really be restricted? Consider the cases where "misinformation" turned out to be correct.
IMHO, governments must err on the side if allowing speech. Anything else invites abuse.
