If someone steals my car and runs someone over, am I liable? I'm not buying this behavior as acceptable. Our networks are not truly secure, and should never be considered anything more than circumstantial evidence. Demanding turnover of computers, I find acceptable. The home invasion I do not. Of course, if the networks are that open, I'm guessing any half-competent security person could get on said computers remotely and get real evidence.
