Yes, many people see it this way, while many see it as black and white in the other direction: CL doesn't own the content on their site (this is a fact) and thus has no say in how others use it (debatable).

Mix black and white together, and you get... gray!

If I throw diamonds from the street onto your front yard, then I just walk away and leave forever, who owns those diamonds? Can your neighbors storm your yard and take them, or are they yours?

Can you now defend your property and keep people away from those diamonds?

If they get them, can you fight to get them back? They were taken from YOUR property after all.

What if I threw them right into your living room?
