  if you forgot to lock your front door, and your TV was gone, does that count as burglary?

    Don't have a front door and an open diary was copied with personal info?

    Acquiring something that isn't your property is not legal in most countries. It's not really relevant if it's behind a door.

      And accessing a computer system without proper authorization is often illegal. So I'm not sure what point you're making.

    Yes, it does count as burglary and you would still be a victim of burglary regardless of if you left your front door unlocked. Insurance might decide to not cover you for not having a minimum level of control in place, but you are still a victim of burglary.
