Government regulation of speech that is factually accurate and true is a like the sword Muramasa; once drawn it's cursed that it must drink blood before it's returned to it's scabbard.

That doesn't mean you never draw the sword, but it is something you only do with the direst need and with a grim understanding of the danger the action poses and that you will be hurting someone today.

I don't think censorship of matter-of-fact speech is ever acceptable.

If you're at war, limiting the communication of troop locations, or the exact details on building weapons of mass destruction I can see being limited. But there's not many situations, and we have seen the above reasons ballooned into much more than they should be because murasama must always drink blood
