Technically, you still donât own it. You have a licence that they can revoke at will. They just canât enforce it.
What makes you say so?
GoG about page explicitly talks about owning, and terms even explicitly mention advance notification so you can download Dr free versions if they will ever become unavailable.
GoG terms do not qualify purchases as temporary access licenses - only to the degree of servicing downloads as long as possible and without other limitation.

We donât believe in controlling you and your games. Here, you wonât be locked out of titles you paid for, or constantly asked to prove you own them - this is DRM-free gaming.
You know thatâs the exception to the general trend though right? GoG has good terms, most others do not.
Physical media still is a better way to go than digital whenever possible.
