Customers who have not read the terms and conditions of a service they are using to store a significant part of their net worth you mean? Every broker I have ever seen very clearly lists in the T&C that they do this.

It was even a discussion here on HN because of an broker frome Sweden ord Norway (I don't remember). So no, it is not allways clear. And no, you may don't own the stock.
