I’d rather live in a world where people don’t lock their doors. That world existed not long ago. What you see as normal and acceptable differs from my ideal.
The question I pose to you: how much is enough in a world with constantly escalating threat? I’d submit that locking doors is a reaction to somewhat static threat. Digital crime is accelerating due to changes in the feasibility and incentives for the criminal- more exploits and digital currencies that make it easy and low risk for the criminal. The more crime, the more value and “adoption” of the digital currencies, the more motivation and less risk for criminal. Not at all like locking your door. It’s a treadmill that will ultimately destroy the fabric of society.
We once lived in a world without door locks. We can choose our future. That’s the opposite of fatalism.
