    but we still say we own an item becauee we are in control of it.

    Yeah, that’s where misconceptions like the one in this thread stem from. Repeat a lie enough, and you’ll start believing it.

      Two people can speak the same language in name and yet the same word can mean something different to them. Words do not have innate definitions, they have usages.

      In my possession are many things which I presume have copyright/patent and fewer things which do not. It seems to me we just draw the line of “ownership” around different things.
