Your analogies are all flawed in the same way - they try to relate the virtual to the physical.

One last time: The squatters are not in YOUR house. They are in a COPY of your house.

Either property rights are real and enforceable, in ALL cases, or they are void and unenforceable.

Which one is it?

One last time: The squatters are not in YOUR house. They are in a COPY of your house.

The issue is the same: ownership of a specific asset, be it physical (my house) or nonphysical (copyright).

In each case, I am being denied the benefits of controlling the use, abuse, and disposal of my property.
