nothing is more annoying than to hear on a news special something about how "meth can be made using this, this, this, and some common household items"... it's totally better to just broadcast the recipe and step by step cooking instructions.

i guess picking bikelocks is a different thing than meth... i think a certain level of awareness should be published, that way people know what is safe, what isn't safe, and can judge accordingly where/when/how to lock their bikes. crooks adapt anyhow, so the secrets will be old and obsolete in a matter of weeks anyhow as soon as they find a new backdoor to crowbar open.
