Not everyone agrees that this is a right.

Possession is nine tenths of the law. You have no right to tell people what to do with their own computers.

    You seem confused. The discussion here is about copyright law and intellectual property licensing. Code is a series of 1s and 0s that can be duplicated at almost no cost. Me "possessing" it doesn't deprive anyone else of anything.
