If it helps any, the US Constitution, both lists a lot of rights, and in the 
9th Amendment says "The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, 
shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people." But 
anyone who takes a course on the Constitution learns that none of the rights we 
have come from the Constitution - it just enumerates some of the rights that 
everyone is born with. Everyone means everyone in Australia, everyone in 
Austria, everyone everywhere.

But it is often said, if you do not know what your rights are, you have none. 
Rights have to be asserted. Strenuously. Thousands of people have been more 
than willing to go to prison to assert various rights so that everyone else 
will have them.

    "you can criticize the gov't - usually without 
fear, as long as it's not promoting anarchy" 
    
    so you dont have freedom of speech

    "It usually doesn't do any good, but you can criticize." 

    so, whatever 'freedom' you have, it is 'granted' to you because
    it is mostly useless. 

    Well, actually, it useless to you, but useful to your
    masters.
