Is there any way to actually own a domain name rather than perpetually lease it?

  No.

    This desperately needs a solution.

      I mean, there are other nets you can use - you can create and own a .onion address, for example. The public internet being fully leased is a feature, not a bug.

        You could also just start your own country - you'll have just about as much luck convincing anyone.

  Yes. Host your own root DNS server for your tld, make it public and convince folk to use it. Additional resources: https://opennic.org/ https://opennic.org/ https://wiki.opennic.org/opennic/creating_new_tlds https://wiki.opennic.org/opennic/creating_new_tlds
