Default Free Will Choice: what acts abridge it?
i have a question that needs answering, concerning free will choice.

i am quite familiar with the concept, but i am having trouble with one particular aspect of understanding free will choice - the act of abridging it.

what constitutes abridgment of free will choice?

for example, i wonder if you are tricked into giving consent that you otherwise would not give, is this abridgment?

is the act of lying to one, an abridgment?
is a misrepresentation to others also an abridgment?
is the deliberate withholding of facts to manipulate a behavior in others an abridgment too?
is giving consent to some act an abridgment of your free will when you do not have enough information to make a reasonable decision?

i do understand that free will choice to me necessarily means that any consent i give to a situation can be rescinded at any time with my simple declaration that it is not my free will choice anymore.

i am directly concerned about situations where one acts in their self-interest and contrary to you and does so without giving you direct knowledge, or else inferring that you made a free will consent.

anybody have an answer?

thanks in advance.
