untrammelled

Without any constraints

Untrammelled means free from restrictions or constraints.

Something untrammelled operates without hindrance or limitation: untrammelled freedom, untrammelled capitalism, the untrammelled wilderness.

The word suggests movement or action that nothing holds back.

The American spelling is untrammeled.

A trammel was originally a net or shackle—something that binds.
