You sure don't OWN it. You can lease IP addresses from the registry, but you still don't own them, you can get an Internet connection from a company, but you don't own it, you are leasing the line and bandwidth from the provider.

Why is it illegal, that's the question! It does not harm anyone!

Ok, but one doesn't need to fully own the cable, to run a startup's server on it. They can forbid SMTP servers, ok, but HTTP etc. should be allowed.

You mean I need my own hacker satellite to own it? Even then, how would you connect your satellite to the network?
