Discrimination and ostracism is what people do, and hiding this under a carpet won't change that fact. So no, there is no such thing as the second right you mention either, and no one trampled on any of your rights. If you don't want to deal with publishers, you're free to do so, just as they should be free not to deal with you, if they don't want to. That doesn't in any way make depriving them of their business by sharing the books, for the rights to sell which they paid, moral, or good.
