It's not nearly as bad as breaking a screen door. It's more like writing in a foreign alphabet, and then crying foul when someone can read that alphabet.

I think this is a much better analogy. I'd even go so far as to say that it would be like using Morse code and then being upset when someone else listening also knows Morse code. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8zfNfilNOIE
