I mean security can be used as a pretext to reduce freedom.
Where to place the cursor between both?
You might want more cameras to protect your freedom of property for example.

I don't think these things are at the opposite ends of a spectrum.
I just think security is something you must build for yourself and not expect it as a god given right.
You have the freedom to build walls, protect yourself and protect others.
So you think that states should not get involved in citizens' security, but that citizens' should secure themselves?
I think that state getting involved in other people's security just causes more inequality, especially when done from higher levels. Smaller communities can have better solutions.
Of course, we must have a balance in this case, but I just wanted to throw in that maximum freedom does not mean minimum security, but I do believe that maximum state security does mean minimum freedoms.
