When the speech goes beyond the legal bottom line, it will no longer be protected by law. It will be forbidden by the law or even receive sanctions from the law, which will give rise to legal responsibility. It's legally responsible speech. It can be defined in two ways,"harm principle"and"clear-and-present-danger standard". We can determine its scope from areas of public interests areas of private interests. The damage to the public interests includes two aspects: the damage to human rights and interests, and the damage to national interests and social order. Freedom of speech should fully respect the privacy of others in the field of independence, autonomy, on the infringement of personal interest, including without others consent to the disclosure of another's privacy, infringement of copyright and other intellectual property rights of others, or to insult, libel, slander and other means to damage the interests of others. It will be reviewed and defined loosely in the areas of private interests, because it is directed at specific individuals in the law on the protection of speech and expression which will call more cautious. Legally responsible speech means that the law permits restrictions on speech and expression and intervention, and how to do it properly in specific cases.
