If the government was making calls to message boards, asking them to remove my comments, I might be suspicious that my free speech rights are being infringed upon.

I might suspect this even before I hear that the government is lobbying for those specific bulletin boards being excluded from pending Russian regulation.

AFAIK (and I may be off here), the government has not officially requested that any entity take negative action against Wikileaks.

The implied threat that action may be taken against them is there, and individual representatives have spoken out against Wikileaks, but I do not believe the government has officially asked / demanded for third parties to cut ties with Wikileaks.
