Nietzche said something along the lines that we get the rights we fight for, and we will lose those we stop caring about. Are you willing to die for your right to, for example, filter?
At some point the pile of rights will start conflicting each other and will also start becoming too costly to enforce. Sorry for being overly cynical but I stay hopeful that in the near future code literacy will be as common as alphabet literacy thus allowing anyone to circumvent these trespasses.
Edit: I would expand the right to filter to include the right to sort. I was thinking about it earlier today when searching for what used to be a popular post on Reddit. I thought I'd find it by sorting by all-time top but the number of members community had grown considerably since that post was submitted there, making what used to be a very popular post actually insignificant. If I would've been able to sort I would've been able to normalize the votes count so that it is relative to the number of members in the community at the time of submission.

Are you willing to die for your right to, for example, filter? Whys such extremes? All you really need to be willing to do is to write some software to perhaps scrape data and then filter them locally. Certainly there's no need to die. Or did I miss something?
