Freedom of speech means you are free to express your opinions.  Freedom of speech does <i>not</i> mean a private, third party is obligated to provide you with a forum to express your opinions.  You have an almost <i>infinite</i> opportunity to express yourself on the internet; get over yourself.<p>I&#x27;ve been hellbanned apparently, which ever so slightly annoys me considering it was for stuff that &quot;cooler&quot; posters don&#x27;t have an eye batted at, but I don&#x27;t pretend HN owes me anything.
