Hehe. Then Exchanges own many coins because users don't have private keys  Grin Grin. They only have email and passwords.
It's unethical for exchanges to steal users' coins.
Spot on, and question is do we really own fiat money on our accounts or bank is the real owner.
Do we own a house or government/state is the real owner, and I can think of many examples like this.

I don't see the difference whatsoever. Whether you find a paper wallet or whether you break in to an electronic device to access the wallet, you are stealing money which is not yours. What about if you accidentally stumble across someone's seed phrase back up? I would suspect that most people would view that as outright theft. How is that any different from stumbling across a paper wallet?
Than judging by your definition we should not have word FOUND at all in dictionary at all, and it should be replaced with STOLEN.  Roll Eyes
So anything people found down the road, on land and everywhere was stolen, and nobody found anything.
I mean you can think whatever you want, fact is there is clear difference between stealing and finding something.
That doesn't mean I would took any money from a wallet I found that have ID card, and I would do my best to find original owner and return this to him.
I guess in this twisted world government extortion taxation is not stealing, but founding something is stealing.... years of brainwashing education worked  Cheesy
