Don’t lose focus, either. The rightful “owner” is the guy who left it at the bar, not the corporation he works for . . . some people just don’t get it.

Somehow I don't think they called the guy and told him they found his phone at the bar. Otherwise, they'd have gotten away with it. LOL!

You were saying ...

Well, that is a good point you've got there.

I'm not sure how "ownership" and being lost applies to a person who has been lent the device, temporarily (which the guy was lent the device temporarily). If that ends up legally changing ownership (per that law, anyway), then it's that guy (who lost it), who is the owner.

But, I'm not entirely sure about that. And actually, it doesn't make any difference the way I see it, because if you think the owner is one guy (or some company) and you're told they don't own it, then it's still a lost device and you still can't appropriate it for your own use, no matter what.
