Freedom is another word for self determination.
Incarceration, the opposite of Freedom is no control.
Isn't your argument that control is bad and that people must relinquish
control for your benefit?
No my argument is some controls are social necessary, we call them laws.
But the particular law of copyright, imposes more costs than benefits
and should be abolished.
We may need to retain control over personal images, and respect peoples
privacy. If we need new laws to maintain these controls we should pass them.

The default should be Freedom.
