You could argue that gmail is not a product that I own, but I paid for it, so technically, don't I own it? ... Should we own the free services that we've paid for with money and data? I really don't see how, so this reads as hand wavey to me. Also, keep in mind, even if we're taking claim of payment at face value, you paid something for it, but that doesn't mean you've paid in full & paying for something doesn't imply ownership (like leasing a car, renting an apartment, etc).
