I'd say your freedom ends where the other person's begins and vice-versa. If reclining your seat is going to impinge upon the person behind you, then you shouldn't recline. Similarly, if you're not reclined, then the person behind you should not be hitting/kicking/resting upon/bumping your seatback.
But in the situation originally described by
Richard4009, the woman sitting behind him evidently became upset when he put his seat forward. So, if you will indulge me this extrapolation, wouldn't it stand to reason that he should then be forced to put his seat BACK?
