This also depends on jurisdiction! What is valid in the US, is not necessarily valid in e.g. the EU.
Copyright only says you can't multiply it. E.g. if I buy a book, I own the book and I can sell the book. What I can't do is copy all pages, bind it to create a second book.
For software - since copying it is a bit less complicated - this also applies; however a license agreement should tell you what you can do with it. E.g. I can buy a CD-ROM with an antivirus program that's licensed to my name for use on one computer. I can sell the CD-ROM but the other person will only be able to use it on their computer if they use my license code (and possible - name) and if indeed I have deactivated and uninstalled the program from my computer.
In the case of FSD, I buy (not subscribe) the software to enable the hardware therein. It is going to be an interesting case in court to see wether indeed Tesla is in their right to disable the function when I decide to sell the car to e.g. My neighbour.
I think a Dutch court would argue I own the car as a whole; including the FSD and therefor I am free to sell it to whomever I please. Just as much as Tesa cannot remove the USB ports that are installed or the tires for that matter. It is a function that belongs to the car.
Especially as you pay a hefty sum for a "self driving car" promise that is yet to be fulfilled and could easily take more than the life expectancy of that car to do so.
