Freedom of speech thankfully cant be tainted by permission to spam. Unfortunately its loose interpretation of the meaning of things that causes those to push the boundaries and open the door for abuse.
I remember when flag burning was briefly protected under that belief but thankfully its now a felony and rightly so.
Freedom of speech is also not a promise or a guarantee that everyone gets to enjoy. It is a dangerous mis conception that the bill of rights applies to everyone who resides in the US when in fact it doesn't. The constitution however does and that "right" is not listed.
SPAM is one of those things that gets debated with to many mis conceptions. As many of you have stated above, what would work is a clearly unbiased definition of what is and what isn't SPAM. Then we find a way to make SPAM so consequential to partake in that people stop pursuing its use.
