Uh, no ...
The First Amendment is the one that says that you can say or print anything
you want because Congress won't stop you.
The "Equal Protection" clause of the Fourteenth Amendment is the one that
says that the states can't stop you either.
But there's no Amendment that says that your ISP can't stop you, that your
employer can't stop you, or that anyone else can't stop you ...
There's just little things like local, state, and federal laws that dictate
HOW they can and cannot stop you.

Freedom of speech is a fundamental right, but it is not absolute, and cannot
be used to justify violence, slander, libel, subversion, or obscenity.
