As far as I know, the modern kryptonite locks are not easily picked. That being said, all cable locks are easily cut. And pretty much all locks are cuttable.
Locks should be used as a deterrent (
i.e., convinced the thief that he's better off stealing somebody else's bicycle). There are places that many, many people here on the forums leave that can not leave even locked bicycles unattended for any length of time.
