No doubt. I was just pointing out that there is a very different dynamic than the colloquial definition of "ownership". Just like you don't "own" your digital Kindle library in the same way as if they were physical books. It's an entirely different framework of rights.

I will still have ownership of my car if I don't register it. I can still use it as long as it's not on public roads etc. This is entirely different than if I don't pay my property taxes. I don't maintain use (or even ownership) of the property. Just because this distinction is clearly spelled out in a legal framework doesn't negate the difference.
