“Kill me and steal my shit” is a lot different.

This is more like, I am not offended if my neighbor notices that I leave my house around the same time everyday and come home around the same time. I don’t expect my neighbor to look away when I step outside. If I put something in my yard visible from their house, I won’t get offended if they look at it.

Killing and stealing are completely different things than “paying attention to what I do when I am doing things they can see”

Are you offended if your neighbor publishes a register of what time everyone around him goes to work, and charges $50 for any burglar to get a copy?
