Your product is legal, but we don't want you giving people ideas that they could use it in a way that is "irresponsible." And yes, we decide what's "irresponsible."

Product is legal, but the way to use it is likely not.

Knives are legal, but likely wouldn't be advertised by showing a scene of stabbing someone. Or Visa payment cards are legal, but you wouldn't show how to use them to bribe an official in the commercials.

Right?

"free speech" groups are being incorporated as we speak, I bet.
