Well, that's a nice off the cuff theory. I think its more like, you can restrict my access to your private property--which is not the same as restricting my speech. In any case, some people just don't get it and they never will. This is where we say let's just agree to disagree. I won't have my personal information shared any more than neccesary and you ... will.
