Own your own:

Digital ownership:

  • You should own digitally (digital-physical demarcation is arbitrary after all!) and there should be property rights equivalent in the real of digitalcategories

            • This could be because both creators and users use their own email address in the former, whereas in the latter users don’t really own their identities theredevelop
