Control paradox

The control paradox states that a live or conscious human beings will also be controlled either by others, or by themselves, so the idea of control will be operating on her. Certainly, medically speaking, human beings needs a certain number of control systems to keep working, but this is more a philosophy about whether or not we are completely free even if we possess free will.

It could easily be rephrased: No human is free from freedom, because even when they are free from the control of others, they are under their own control.

The idea of exactly what it means to be "free" or to have "free will", when we know that the states of the mind are dictated by physical processes, has been discussed extensively by the philosopher of science Daniel Dennett.
