Claim ID: ownership-system-by-2010
Assertion: Through the early 2010s, the Rust team created an "ownership" system so that a piece of data can be referred to by only one variable, greatly reducing the chances of memory problems.
Quote: Through the early 2010s, Mozilla engineers and Rust volunteers worldwide gradually honed Rust's core—the way it is designed to manage memory. They created an "ownership" system so that a piece of data can be referred to by only one variable; this greatly reduces the chances of memory problems.
