The creator of the Cyberpunk 2077 VR mod CD Projekt recently hit with a DMCA strike has paused his Patreon page and pulled access to all his mods after receiving another strike from a different publisher.

Not every law system allows to sell your copyrights. In germany for example it is only possible to license your copyrights but not to fully transfer them.
Copyrights are therefor not part of the transfer of ownership, you have to add a license agreement additionally.

That’s what ‘own’ means.
