Locks are really only there to ward off honest people.
- DangitBobby 6y agoThis sentiment is expressed in the second sentence of the linked article.

- closetohome 6y agoThe article then goes on to completely miss the point of that statement.
- DangitBobby 6y agoBe that as it may, I interpreted the plain statement as an attempted refutation of the contents of the article. The author of the article directly mentions the sentiment, which I take as an indicator that they believe it will be adequately addressed. So I believe that a claim to the contrary must include an explaination of why they believe the author did not address this point, rather than just reiterating it as though it were a new or novel idea in the discussion. As it stands, without acknowledging that the author already expressed this same sentiment, I have to conclude that GP did not read it.
