During World War I, freedom of speech was significantly limited in many countries, particularly in the United States and Germany. Governments enacted laws such as the Espionage Act of 1917 and the Sedition Act of 1918 in the U.S., which criminalized anti-war speech and dissent. These laws aimed to suppress criticism of the war effort and maintain public support for military actions. In Germany, the government also restricted free expression, leading to the imprisonment of those who opposed the war or criticized the regime.

The Four Freedoms are goals famously articulated by United States President Franklin D. Roosevelt in the State of the Union Address he delivered to the 77th United States Congress on January 6, 1941. In an address also known as the Four Freedoms speech, Roosevelt proposed four points as fundamental freedoms humans "everywhere in the world" ought to enjoy: # Freedom of speech and expression # Freedom of religion # Freedom from want # Freedom from fearFreedom from tyranny
As he spelled it out in the Truman Doctrine: "One way of life is based upon the will of the majority, and is distinguished by free institutions, representative government, free elections, guarantees of individual liberty, freedom of speech and religion, and freedom from political oppression."

One government law passed during wartime which limited the freedom of speech to protect national security issues was the Sedition Act of 1918. In order to silence criticism of the United States during World War 1, Congress passed the Sedition Act on the grounds that the government's interest in the war outweighed individuals' rights to freedom of speech.
Freedom of speech. The first amendment
Schenck v. United States
"Freedom of the Seas" was a speech delivered by Woodrow Wilson in 1917, during World War I. In this speech, Wilson outlined his vision for a world based on the principles of open trade, freedom of navigation, and respect for the rights of neutral nations. The speech played a significant role in shaping public opinion and ultimately influenced the United States' decision to enter the war.

"The first is freedom of speech and expression- everywhere in the world. The second is freedom of every person to worship God in his own way- everywhere in the world. The third is freedom from want- which, translated into world terms, means economic understandings which will secure to every nation a healthy peacetime life for its inhabitants- everywhere in the world. The fourth is freedom from fear- which, translated into world terms means a world-wide reduction of armaments to such a point and in such a thorough fashion that no nation will be in a position to commit an act of physical aggression against any neighbor- anywhere in the world."
