If there was a blockchain that tracked who is supposed to own what, it should still be voluntary whether or not you believe in what that blockchain says just as it is voluntary whether or not you believe bitcoin is money or agree to accept it as currency.

At the end of the day, if you and I are in a room, and you have a slice of choclate cake, what it means that you own it is that you and I have a contract. Becuase one day it might be me who has a slice of choclate cake when were alone.

So it really makes more sense to say that contracts should be voluntary, after that the market should sort out networks contracts of who gets to use what exist. The market comes to a set of agreements that may or not match your ideas of how property works.
Also, I really wonder about how the people on twetch feel about intellectual property. Love all of it? Love seeing genes patented? Hate it? Hate how they keep extending copyrights for works already done? Love you all!
Without private property there is a war going on about all resources, unless there is an authoritarian entity controlling it - with all that implies.
We are so used private property that we forget that fact.
Private property does exist.
You own your body.
You own your body and the fruits of its labor.
If you dont, you are a slave.
About IP: Difficult topic.
CSW and Kinsella had a discussion about it.
I tend to agree with Kinsella.
Twetchers probably disagree...
