One certainly cannot depend on the law or governments to protect your human rights, as they define them and then introduce caveats for when they can be ignored or suspended.
As you say, these amount to privileges granted by the State that can be taken away, they claim, in the interests of Society, as a whole.
Another concept is that it’s “liberty” rather than “freedom “, that we should seek to preserve and fight for.
Basically, to be able to go about our lives as we choose, without being restricted or oppressed by Society or “authorities “.
Human rights are simply the right to make your own choices (as long as those choices don't impact others negativelly). I don't want to regulate anyone else's life, nor should anyone have the power to regulate mine.
Too many average people are afraid of liberty or freedom, afraid of responsibility for themselves, afraid to live responibly without false promises of protection and gurantees from a superior body.
Your rights are only as good as your might to prevent the others from taking them away be it by wrong laws or by sher unjustified force, holding up your rights it can be done with guns or with being sneaky.
Sneaky guys live better and longer.
