If someone leaves their door unlocked and open it doesn't mean I have a right to walk in and take what I want.

- ddingus 6y agoThis is more like leaving it on the street, mixed in with a lot of other free stuff. Physical analogies break down. Truth is, this info was out there for anyone to copy, and who ever did that is definitely guilty of something and or liable. It will be tough to make passers by into criminals here. They aren't. Keeping secrets is hard. Should be.
- ddingus 6y agoI wrote this poorly. Meant whomever left this data in the clear is guilty of something and or liable.
- ummonk 6y agoIt would be like keeping a dropped wallet - the person who keeps it is guilty, not the person who accidentally dropped it.
- dcow 6y agoNo it wouldn't. It would be like taking a picture of a dropped wallet on the street. Regardless, under what moral framework are we operating such that obvious guilt is prescribed to anyone who might pick up a wallet in the street, anyway? Of what crime are they guilty?
