If knowing is owning then stealing becomes impossible, because bitcoin don't know who owns (knows) a key. You need a 3rd party.

> then stealing is impossible

Uh don’t forget that Big Media had altered the definition of stealing such that your statement is now wrong. Stealing (as in “don’t steal a movie”) no longer implies you’re depriving anyone of the thing you stole, and now just means you’ve made a copy of a thing someone owns.
