Does it really matter whether you're in your own house or standing on the public street? The good Samaritan in the analogy didn't go through the open door. They just phoned their neighbor to warn them: "Hey, your door is open, leaving your purse in plain view. You should probably fix that!"
A bad actor would have actually stolen the purse. Just like a bad actor would have used the social security numbers to commit identify fraud. Since neither of those things happened, prosecuting anyone is ridiculous, in both the analogy and real life.
