If I set out a bowl of candy for ticker treaters, I wouldn't expect to be okay with the first adult strolling by and taking everything.

and if they do, you have no recourse just like with scrapers. with the candy example, you spend you time sitting near the candy bowl supervising. for servers, we have various anti-bot supervisors. however, some asshat with no scruples can still just walk right up to your bowl and empty the contents into their bag and then just walk away even with you sitting right there. Unless you're willing to commit violence, there's nothing stopping them. now you're the assailant and the asshat is the victim. you still loose.

Then cutting up the candy and taping candy together in the most statistically pleasing way and finally selling all of the stolen frankenstein’s monster candy as innovative new candy and the future of humanity.
