I wouldn't try to use physical property as an analogy. You can't even see what properties there are until you enter them. If the door wasn't locked you won't know until you're already inside. Here's an analogy I think is closer: I ask you for all your personal documents and bank account numbers. You promptly give them to me with no questions asked. Was I accessing private property improperly? If you refused and demanded I identify myself as someone authorized to have access, and then I forcibly took them from you anyway, that would be criminal. Web addresses aren't property, I think that's the wrong analogy. The web is made of requests and responses, and you don't know what response you'll get until you make the request.
