How can someone steal something from you that you don’t own?



Legacy space.  The best example I can think of was Choopa's hijacking
of Erie Forge and Steel's legacy space.  In this case, it was theft as
it was a legacy allocation and therefore "owned" by EFS.

EFS however, did not notice because they were not using the legacy
allocation for anything.
