Copyright and license are different concepts. Copyright means that somebody
claims authorship or ownership. License is a set if terms of use of software.

LICENSE=NONE simply means that no limitations on copying/distributing/etc. were
set. Copyright usually still applies, which means that others can't claim
ownership. Rights to claim ownership are limited, but rights to copy and
distribute aren't.
