Party A records every interaction with Party B. Party B records every interaction with Party A.

Who owns what Party A recorded, and who owns what Party B recorded?

That's why "ownership" is a bad model for this, and (to my knowledge) not really used in any privacy laws. They are not about who owns records, it's about who has which rights to them. Under GDPR, you do not own data about you a company has, but you have rights related to it.

Are you suggesting that the user should track their interactions themselves if they want to own a copy?

When Party A is a multibillion dollar corporation and Party B is an individual, the arguments can not be parallelized.

What if party A is a small business and party B is a litigious user movement? We can substitute values for A and B all day. At what point can we parallelize the arguments? Modern laws aren't defining that line which, in some cases while trying to solve their immediate problems, have unintended effects on the non-targets.
