Verified facts. I work in a co-working space and coffee shops. NOBODY locks their laptop when they leave it. They don't even close the lid! Similarly, people are fine with disclosing their name and DOB at the pharmacy regardless of queue length. Or having their license cards facing outwards for the world to see (and read).

Back in the day at LAN parties, if you did that you might come back to find your mouse buttons had been reversed, your desktop icons had been cleared and replaced with a screenshot of your desktop icons as wallpaper, or worse. We called it "leaving the keys in the ignition". Simpler times back then, but a great kick-start to opsec.

yep. hotdogging was a thing too back in the "in the office" days. wfh was a major regression here (though I lock my stuff even when I'm at home).
