If the owner of the contract is a dead account like 0x000000000000000000

Could someone change the contract ownership?
Because in the contract of the token there is a function of freeze account
And only owner can do that

The question is why there is a such a function of the owner is dead ?
Also could i know when the owner of the smartcontract has changed the ownership ?

This is the contract that I'm asking about

owner being 0x0 basically means that the contract has no owner. So all functionality requiring ownership is non-functional. The function is there because the contract probably had a real owner at some point. You can dig the contract history to find when

Thank you

To change the owner the first owner should update the contract
So there should be a transaction from the owner to the contract right?
