Freedom of speech does not apply to:

Terroristic threats
False advertising
No freedom is absolute.

Insider trading
You have freedom to travel. If I loan you my car, I can tell you not to take it out of town, because it’s mine, you have no right to use it, and if I give you permission to use it I can tell you what you can and can’t do with it.
