Even though this is a general notion relating to humanity it can be specified in parts just as Simone De Beauvoir says in one of her main thesis that we all need one another in order to have freedom.

in the future, and everything that applies under the fourth amendment today. At the end of the eighteenth century this was dealing with pamphlets that the king did not like and tried to extinguish through tearing apart the “offender’s” homes.
