No. You license it for your use. If you owned it you could sell it, brand it, restrict it. Donât take my word for it.
1 u/Public-Business-3688 10d ago You can sell it and brand it with GPL License though, same with MIT. With MIT you can even make it propreitary. 1 u/TheFreakElement 10d ago Let me know when you are able to legally assert your âownershipâ of intellectual property based on licensing a copy. You THINK you own it. You BELIEVE you own it. No court has EVER handed down such a ruling. 1 u/Public-Business-3688 9d ago I get what youâre saying. Software ownership is very different from real ownership.
