Unfortunately if "put X into a bikini" is a command to an AI to generate CSAM of an underage child, that's no longer "constitutionally protected" territory. Also, these are global investigations - most countries don't have the same approach to freedom of speech as the US.

In general, I support free speech, but I don't take an absolutist position as there can be a lot of harm created by allowing lies to propagate unrestricted (c.f. Brexit in the UK). Meanwhile, there's direct emotional harm being caused by these AI images being posted and also a speech chilling effect by making people, especially women, afraid of posting on contentious topics.
