I think it's more akin to "if I leave my curtain open, is it ok for people 
driving by to see into my living room?"  The answer is "yes".  People are 
not legally obliged to avert their gaze just because you don't want them 
to see inside your home.  How are they to know what you want?  If you 
leave the drapes open, maybe it's because you want people to see inside.

Entering someone's unlocked home is akin to cracking into their computer 
when it has a bad password.  That may be a criminal act.
