Property rights are those rights, and we already have them. The issue is that the copyright cartel is trying to take them away from us. They are colonizing our devices with DRM + the DMCA anti-circumvention clause in an attempt to reduce us to techno-serfdom.
Ad-blocking, Free Software, Right to Repair (also a right we already have, not a new one we need), "you will own nothing ~~and be happy~~" propaganda , etc. are all just different aspects of the same issue: the corporate war against property rights.
