I'm talking more about permitted usage. In the US, public land is public, but you can't just use it however you'd like. Things like, can you camp overnight? Can you camp anywhere or just in specific locations? Can you use a horse or a bike or an ATV? Are you allowed to have a firearm? Can you fish? Can you hunt? Can you do professional photography? Do you need to stay on trails. Can you access the area by boat? Can you use radio-controlled model aircraft or cars? Drones?
In the US, the answers to all these questions are different depending on which piece of public land it is. Each is managed separately based on what is most important about the land and the people and wildlife around it.
It's just not clear that nearly as much thought is being put into the management handling these competing priorities in this case. There's almost an expectation that each landowner will be able to manage it themselves, without having any authority to really enforce any of their management decisions.
