That key is given only to the person who owns the license. They are the
one who decides who the operators are. They are, as far as the program is
concerned, god. They can do whatever they want. That's what you get when you
buy the license.

If you give someone the key, you give someone the server. That's how it
works.

It shouldn't have code to allow the owner to access it?

I can't understand what you're trying to say above. If you can say it
more coherently, I'll try to reply to it.

It's not a back door, it's the front door. If you have an illegal copy
of conference room, *WE OWN IT*. If you didn't buy it, it's not yours. So
again, this is a case where the owner accesses his property. There is *NO*
potential for abuse.
