Breaking into a hotel room deprives the current possessor the exclusive right to possess the room; stealing a piece of software deprives the copyright holder the exclusive right to control their copyrighted work.

I think the source of disagreement here is that you have a natural right to land use, but a purely legal right to exclusively control copies of your work.
