unhobbled
No longer fettered
Unhobbled means free from hobbles—the straps used to restrict an animal's movement by binding its legs.
By extension, anything unhobbled has been released from restraint or limitation: an unhobbled press, unhobbled by convention.
The word suggests liberation from something that previously constrained natural movement or expression.
