[p2p-research] Venture Communism or social capitalism

from my current point of view,

property of any individual could ideally be limited to what one uses.
hence not encouraging accumulation,
which possibly adds an incentive for quality ?

example : if I use my computer, I own it.
if I have one old computer I do not use anymore, I am not entitled to its
property anymore.
although I could imagine I could perhaps have a say in the governance of who
makes future use of it ?

but this opens up many more questions.

who has access to the fruit of production capacity ?
consumers of the production ?
who are allowed to be the consumers of production ?

How far stretches the definition of "using" ?

Do I own the processing capacity of my computer that I do not use?
Do I own the hard disk capacity of my computer that I do not use ?

I like Ryan's answer - how do we manage the governance of... the use of
property ?
