These responses are not accurate.
In the U.S., freedom of speech is protected by the First Amendment to the Constitution, allowing citizens the right to express themselves without government interference.
Australia does have freedom of speech protections, but they are not as strong as those in the U.S. because Australia does not have a constitutional guarantee of freedom of expression.
Ireland also has protections for freedom of speech, but they are subject to certain limitations such as laws against hate speech and defamation.
China, on the other hand, has strict restrictions on freedom of speech, with censorship and government controls on media and online speech.
