A lot of the issues people have seem to relate to two things: licensing as opposed to ownership, and IP law. Some licensing schemes may just count as ownership under common law, so would be unenforceable. The really awful ones only exist because of a lack of competition, most likely due to patents and copyright, which I holistically oppose, along with copyright and most copyright law (some exceptions, like certain trademarks, exist because they are essentially fraud).
