Would you check someone else’s trail cam?

Just curious what everyone’s opinion is on this:

You come across a trail camera in an area you hunt. Are you willing to check it? Nothing more, just open the camera, check the card on your phone, and put it right back. Not deleting pictures or messing with camera, just checking the card. (This is also assuming the camera does not have a lock box you would have to mess with. )

And if you knew someone had checked your camera, like stated, would you be frustrated?

I personally have checked cameras before, and personally don’t care if people check mine as long as they don’t mess with anything else. I’m just curious if that is how many other people feel as well?

Hey, your truck was just sitting there at the trail head so I figured I would pick the lock and take a look through your truck. Sound OK to you? If not, then how is that any different from opening someone's trail cam and looking through it.

Trail cam on public land = personal property
Truck parked on public land = personal property

Damn Skippy!!! How is this even a legitimate question? Has our societal norms, societal acceptances, gotten to a point where someone else's personnal property can be used by anyone that comes along, just because they can?
How about we all agree, leaving things alone that belong to others or better yet, that don't belong to you, is the right thing to do.

My folks taught me if it’s not yours you don’t touch it period

Last week someone just stole my SD card on a cat bait. Helped me make decision not to set

When you go out hunting leave your truck unlocked, i'll just nose around and see what you have in there.
