Where do you get the idea that masks are only about the person's own good, and not to prevent damage to others?



From the enlightened central committee, who have yet to pass an law making it illegal to unknowingly walk the streets while being infected with an virus(and even the common cold is deadly to the vulnerable).

At what point will it ever be legal again to break isolation, and where were the constitutional process that allowed the government to restrict fundamental rights no simple parliamentary majority can interfere with?

This is the problem you have an government making decree's it never had the authority to do because of an "crisis" with no clear star/end condition, which basic sociology predicts will lead to people getting contrarian views and reactions especially if the response to criticism is an "call to authority" no matter how deserved that call is.
