If you own something and someone else takes it from you without permission, that is theft. Is the DOJ going to file charges against these companies? Doubtful. Perhaps there will be a class action suit? Maybe.
Short of some extensive legal action, let's not be naive, the conclusion is obvious, you don't own these things. At best, you're leasing them - which is a different set of expectations and rights.
