The eight values of free expression are all important in their own right. Our world would be completely different if they weren't protected. Out of the eight values of free expression, the one I believe is the most important is innovation.
Innovation allows us to progress as a society. It is the reason why most of the things we have are the way they are. Let's go back to the first computers for examples. These were machines that were highly inefficient and took up entire rooms in secure facilities. Today, our computers and even our smart phones have 100x the processing power at a much smaller scale. These more efficient, design friendly machines allow our world to run the way it does. Without men like Steve Jobs and Bill Gates, we would be relying on slow, inefficient machines to do important tasks for us instead of pulling out our phones.
Another area that would be completely different is the gaming industry. I am an avid gamer. Some would say a little too avid. Innovation has taken gaming to new heights, with the advent of VR and the spread of online gaming through the development of services such as Steam, Playstation Network, and Xbox Live. These services allow millions of people around the world to connect.
Innovation gives dreamers a way to realize their dreams. Without it, our world would be a lot more gray and boring, with no room to think and act freely.
