I don't fully understand what you suggest. I live in a big city. It's very safe here - I am not afraid of walking alone in the night, neither is my wife. Theft is a problem, but not huge - I leave my bike unchained when going into a store, and chained outside overnight, for example. I lost my LED bike lights twice though, weird thing to steal but I guess they're very easy to detach. I also leave my apartment door unlocked when I'm inside, including overnight.

Of course, as you said, in a city I will never feel safe enough to leave a door unlocked when leaving my apartment - big cities are big, and even 0.1% of bad apples may spoil things for everyone. But wanting a safer and more high-trust society sounds like a good thing, right? How would disconnecting from the internet help me.
