Microsoft: Office 2013 license is for just one PC, FOREVER

nevstah

if you don't own the software..

does that mean (in the same way as malware/viruses arent your property) that microsoft can update/change and poke around in the contents of your pc at will? afterall its their property, anything created with it must also be their property? in much the same way as anything i do at my day job belongs to the company i work for?
