is chilled actually a legal term?
[/ QUOTE ]
Yes, many court cases use the term to mean that some government action makes it harder, riskier or otherwise less desirable to conduct an activity that has some protection under the constitution. Usually the court states that the governmental action or law etc. has or may have a chilling affect.
