Meta-rights

Meta-rights are rights, or rules, about how a person can use their rights. They tell us the ways that a person, or group of people, must behave when using their rights. For example, a meta-right might say that people must not use their rights to hurt or harm other people. Or it might say that people must be respectful when using their rights. Meta-rights help us to understand how to use our rights in an ethical and responsible way.
