Well, with respect to classical law, in your scenario the user has less
freedom and control over it's own resources, because you give him the
/usus/, the right to use it, but you refuse him the right to give
exclusive /usus/ to someone else.

That's a basic freedom in real life, and it's pretty useful in some very
interesting schemes in OS implementation.

It's not really altered, because the originating peer keeps the
/abusus/, which gives him the ability to get back to the exact state of
control it was before.

Freely,
Pierre
