Does anyone genuinely believe this is a threat to free speech though? I only see this projected onto people who argue for free speech, like you are doing. But people who argue for free speech don't also argue that we should push all information on children. Sex, how to murder someone, curse words, etc. It's not that they are hypocrites, its that you're oversimplifying someone else's perspective until it appears to be a contradiction.
