“If someone gave me the key to their front door so I could drop off amazon packages but I actually used it to come in and destroy all their valuables would it really be MY fault?”

Yes.




The action of destroying the valuables is the crime. Writing down instructions on how to destroy them is just speech. If the owner (or someone else) executes those instructions then they are the actor and the responsible party.


But you're not just leaving instructions, you're turning on the water and firing up the stove.
