At this point he’s earned it.

There are some cities where having a phone out and in the open is a danger. For example, if you’ve ever been to a crowded part of London and tried to take your phone out, you’ve either had a kind stranger tell you to put it away, or you’re reading this on the phone you bought after yours was stolen.

Phone thieves are vigilant, always waiting for you to slip up and be inattentive. This could be leaving it out on a table at a restaurant or, in the case of the video below, having it out of your car window. And once they’ve decided to steal it, as this video shows, they’re ready to put in the work to take it out of your hands.
