言論自由也有以下的 limitations:
Limitations on freedom of speech may include:

-Obscenity
-Threats
-Lying in court (perjury)
-Talking out of turn during a trial, or talk that causes contempt of court

-Company secrets (trade secrets), such as how a product is made or company strategy (Example: Eleven herbs and spices of KFC chicken)
-Political secrets: campaign strategies, dirty past/deeds of a politician, etc.
