Sorry for the late answer. I got swamped with spam…

With cards, “own” is here to be taken very literally: Your MNO owns your SIM card, your bank owns your banking card (it is often written in the back). Of course, things are not as clear on a phone, as you may want to claim ownership of the eSE.

In fact, more generally, the “owner” is the stakeholder who controls the master keys (for instance, the Issuer Security Domain keys in GlobalPlatform). For an eSE, this owner typically is the OEM.

What does it mean to “own” the secure element? Is it legally considered to be part of the device manufacturer or MNO?

Any pointers to where I might find detail on this?

Thanks.
