yeah and that’s still private ownership. If i buy for, pay for, and host a server in my home that runs a lemmy instance, that’s all privately owned, it doesn’t matter that joe from kentucky can create an account and log in on it. It’s still private.
The idea of public ownership is based soley on a government entity holding land for public good, think a national park. Or like, roads.
you CAN just go on the internet. R u ok?
If you pay for it, and people let you, you absolutely can. If i decided that i wanted to be a racist fascist tomorrow i would get banned pretty quickly because this lemmy instance isn’t for the public good, it’s for community good. Sure i could move to another instance, but they all have the same underlying problems.
And technically a lot of these would apply to public land as well, just for different reasons.
