If freedom of speech is absolute, how come it's not applied for private spaces and for the Internet?

Fraud

You have freedom of speech. If I loan you my computer, I can tell you not to use it for certain things, because it’s mine, you have no right to use it, and if I give you permission to use it I can tell you what you can and can’t do with it.
