See, I disagree. You know how if you're in public you have no reasonable right to privacy?

Well, if your network is open to the public and not properly secured, that's on you. Especially multi-million dollar organizations that can afford to pay security experts.

An unlocked door is not in itself permission to enter a house.

Bad or no security is not in itself permission to enter.

Yes, the Astros do bear some responsibility to make sure things are not easily accessible. That doesn't change the fact that what the Cardinals did was wrong.

Look up lock bumping. I (well, somebody) could be inside your house in 10 seconds if you use a normal lock. I trust you won't be calling the cops when you find your home emptied of all valuables? It's on you, right?
