That's the thing about freedom. People can do whatever they want as long as
they aren't taking away someone else's freedom.
There are people who actually believe in that concept. Not just for
themselves. But for everyone. That's what liberty is.
(And... just to be clear... I'm not trying to be condescending..,. It's just
that I've observed that it seems to be the popular thing for people to say
they support "freedom" and "liberty" without knowing what they mean. You
don't have support the concepts of freedom and liberty. It's a personal
choice.)
Going back to the libertarian example again... libertarians would be
horrified to hear of force being used on people just for using a "works"
(like an image, writing, a song or whatever).
See ya
