Is “it’s your land, do what you want with it” a thing anywhere at all? Afaik the land usually belongs to the government and even if sold it’s not really sold sold, otherwise one could buy some land and declare independence which is kind of not possible
Ownership over something doesn’t mean you can do whatever you want with it legally. You wouldn’t argue you don’t “actually own” a knife because you’re not allowed to stab people with it.
Well, I would say that this is a very controversial area of what exactly are you not allowed to do with things you really own. I consider everything that doesn’t harm other people to be allowed, others may view it differently.
