This kind of speak makes me slightly uncomfortable as it implies a
notion of ownership that is contrary to the license used for that
software. Of course, I simply (re-)use software for my own purposes
without notification if it is licensed accordingly. 

I'm not accusing you of being serious here, but the tongue-in-cheek is
only understood in relation to a deeply ingrained capitalistic sense of
property. Why is this is notion even apparent on a ML about FLOSS
software?
