Without your knowledge

If it's without my knowledge how do I know whether or not my rights are being violated and, if they are, who is actively going to do something about it?

Hym "Because it's being done 'without your knowledge' is exactly what makes it unconstitutional. I have the right to face my accuser. This is the problem here. You want me to have less rights. I have more rights. I won't accept less rights. You're not the behavior dictators. Someone is going to get hurt and when they do the wrong person is going to be blamed."

knowledge

Nothing is free, not even knowledge. Usually somebody who thinks knowledge should be free is a thief looking to make money off what somebody else knows.

When somebody tries to tell you knowledge is free, let them know it cost everybody else, including you.

Knowledge Junkie

Knowledge Junkie (noun): An intellectually adventurous individual, often of high intelligence, with an insatiable curiosity and an intense drive to acquire knowledge. Often labeled as “know-it-alls” due to their obsessive focus on intellectual pursuits, they show little interest in non-intellectual discussions. Driven by the need to constantly challenge and expand their understanding, they are willing to take significant risks—such as venturing into warzones for firsthand insights or scaling extreme mountains to test their mental and physical limits—in pursuit of learning.

"I swear, my friend Jamie is such a knowledge junkie. Last year, she hiked through a jungle just to study ancient ruins up close, and now she’s talking about traveling to a warzone for some documentary research. She’s always chasing the next big thing to learn, no matter how wild it is."
