No, it limits the concept of free expression to be governmental only. It is closely adjacent to the idea that government grants our rights and with out government we have no rights

it is rejection of the idea of Natural Rights for which the US was founded on, this rejection of natural rights is growing in the population is is very dangerous to those very rights

Believing that only governments can censor is a rejection of the principle of free expression which is "I may disagree with you but I support your right to say it"
