It's possible to "deserve" some rights and not others on a case-by-case basis.

What property?
- KGIII 9y agoThe domain name. I'm pretty sure that's considered property, legally speaking. They will seize it as an asset, for example. However, it may be that they have a different definition for revoked than I have. That would make me happy.
- ue_ 9y agoDoes one actually own a domain name? I thought one owns a license to a domain name, which can be revoked at any time by the issuer, and that if it is seized, then it is the license that is seized. Interesting.
- KGIII 9y agoCourts have seized and transferred them as assets. I would like to think there is some rights there, much like the rights of renters. It doesn't appear as though there are many. I consider this to be a bad thing.
- ue_ 9y agoOne might consider domains to be personal property, in that they exist only as a mapping on servers owned by people. On the other hand, registrars collect rent from them, so one could consider them private property. So I am not sure if I am in favour of domain names being considered property of any single person or not.
