RE: Should the freedom of speech/expression be curtailed or should it be remain as a basic human rights?

· It should be restricted in certain cases only.

Do those who purposefully spread false information, designed to disrupt and obstruct formulation of sound public policy, have the "right" to subject civil societies to inevitable harm and dissolution for personal gain? Do pedophiles possess the "human right" to distribute their perverse contents with impunity? Do the ignorant have the "right" to divulge state secrets to the detriment of their nation-state? Do those who spread ideology contrary to the tenets of the host sociocultural matrix have the "right" to subvert their host nation? Censorship of toxic, delusional, or ignorant ideas is not only necessary, but the duty of responsible governance.
