Your telling comes across as an indictment of the security industry.

I think it's a testament to human progress. We've never been as safe as we are today.

Maybe time to just leave the lock away then. It's pretty common in Scandinavia, and, at least for me as a tourist, had quite an impact on the societies' mood.

Oh, but we are not safe because of better locks. We are safe because most societies your typical HN readers lives in are fairly safe.

(I know lots of people in Germany who don't bother to lock their doors.)
