I was biking in the northern Sweden and stopping by a restaurant. I left my luggage on my unlocked bike outside while going in for lunch for an hour. Nothing strange about that, why would anyone steal a bike? Noone locked their bikes!
Instead of saying openess is bad, let's say what kind of society you would like to live in and then work towards it.
Personally I would rather not have a bike lock, nor door lock.

- null_object 4y ago> Noone locked their bikes! Wow this is a surreal comment. More than 65,000 bikes are reported stolen each year in Sweden [0] - but this is just the tip of the iceberg, as a stolen bike is so common that hardly anyone even bothers reporting it.
