We've been through the analogies about the web numerous times, and it seems that it's always been clear that you can't compare the web to your home. In your home, if you don't lock your doors, you can still expect a person to knock before entering. The web isn't like that and its a clear assumption that is inherent in how the web operates. If the web didn't function like that, it'd be much harder to navigate and be far less useful to us.
