Um, the freedom of speech is the freedom to speak truthfully and honestly.
Lying to and decieving people ain't part of the deal.

Who decides though which is the truth and which is the lie, so in the absence of any true judge we have to allow all forms of speech, with some countries drawing the line at offensive or racist speech, like the UK. Of course, what is and isn't offensive is also debatable...

Well, I think that I'm safe in saying that using photoshop to erase people from a photograph is not something that is very closely associated with the truth.
Similarly, bearing false witness is a crime, purjury is a crime, false advertising is a crime, and you can get your @rse kicked in court for slander.
Freedom of speech is concerned with the freedom to express one's honest opinions, not the freedom to lie about anyone or anything.
It's not an "I can say anything I like!", it's an "I am free to believe what I like and express my beliefs".

Quite, freedom of speech and slander/libel laws coexist. Race hate speach laws reinforce that.

They have previous form for this - see the second photo on this page[^]

I can't wait till Dave comes back and finds out he has to win a CCC in order to start posting them again.

|
Hey, you wrote the rules!
|
|
|
|

Mostly so that it was distinct from the CCC: I don't want to tread on DD's toes when he does get back. He started this, so it's only fair it goes back to him when he returns.
And since it's Winner Stays On, you need some rules to make sure everybody knows what to expect!

Now I'm not allowed into message moderation page - that's good! It shouldn't be public to everyone at the first place...
Skipper: We'll fix it.
Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?
Skipper: Grit, spit and a whole lotta duct tape.

That's great news!
Let's hope they're still working hard at keeping you out of other places, too!

I had to look-up who David Cameron is (sorry), but if PM here would ask for such back-door people would show him out of the front door...

Perhaps GCHQ would like to drop all their encrypted transmissions. What's David's thoughts on that?

He lost his plot when he tried to raise the bar.
