Exactly. There could not be true / full ownership of hardware.
And yet that's fine for me.
Now about that:
Even in that case you can never be sure what a compiler did with the code. You can say: go look at the code of that compiler. But then how can I be sure it's code had been compiled without malicious modifications. And so on.
You can compile your compiler from source.

But seriously, it's cool, you're curious about it, and the pay from the jobs it leads to tends to be pretty great.
