Comment on - Buy Once Software
So what does “ownership” mean then for software?
“Ownership” can mean a lot of different things
You were arguing that having control over something (as in being able to modify it and resell it) isn’t a requirement for the thing’s ownership?
the things you listed are most certainly not a requirement.
Then what are? Why wouldn’t the ability to modify and resell be requirements for ownership?
If “ownership” doesn’t have a unified meaning, then I can interpret “ownership” as the ability to modify and resell the bought item.
