Using the legal system to force other people to do what you want and perpetually isn't freedom: it's controlling others by force to make them live the way you want them to. You're taking away their personal freedoms, like sharing or not sharing their work, to promote or force compliance with a goal of yours. Again, that's control, not freedom.

Would you want people controling your property based on their current and future desires? And dictating what you do with your property enhancements? Would you call that giving you more freedom? Or denying you freedom to force you to support their goals for your property?

It's stupid to discuss this in the abstract because what you want to do with your property is very relevant. If you want to paint your fence a weird color and that's what's being prohibited by law is different is totally different from if you want to build a heavy polluting chemical processing factory or a poorly run slaughter house with animals squealing at all hours of the day.
