I disagree wholeheartedly. If your front yard happens to become a popular meeting space for the town, it doesn't change your rights to your yard. You can still ask anyone to leave for any reason. Google literally built all their infrastructure from the ground-up. It's theirs in the most direct sense of the word, and we should take an attitude of humble gratitude for their ongoing contributions to our wellbeing, rather then continue our attempts to punish them for their success.

If you permit your front yard to become a popular meeting space for the town, I think it does change your rights to your yard.

Ownership implies responsibility.

No, ownership is a fixed contract specifying property rights. It's tyrannical to change this contract without the consent of the rights holder.
