&quot;Withdrawal of consent&quot; isn&#x27;t merely &quot;creating things to skirt around the rules I don&#x27;t like&quot;. Withdrawing consent is <i>withdrawing from the system to which you no longer consent</i>.<p>You <i>do not get</i> to reap the benefits of living in a society without subscribing to its rules and mores. You can work to change them from within, or you can walk. Pretending you can reap the rights of participation in society without shouldering your share of the responsibilities concomitant to those rights is spectacularly delusional.
