As we've seen with Alex Jones even free speech is not absolute (for the record I agree with the rulings against Jones). If the code is designed to facilitate illegal activity I can see how that could be shut down by the government.

Alex Jones got sued. It’s very different. The government did not pass a law saying he can’t share conspiracy theories directly or that certain theories are off-limits. He just conducted himself in such a way as to cause enough other problems and thus give people grounds to sue him (and win).

Specifically as I understand it ,he got sued then deliberately didn’t try to fight it, and defaulted.
