actually only one lock is attached to the rack. a thief only would need to bust one lock and then carry it away. the extra locks also give him a nice cover story, he can say that the locks were a prank and he didnt have time to find the guy with the keys.

I would hazard a guess that the owner of the bike has remarkably clean hands and does not step on cracks...
Or an awesome sense of humor. I am going with that!

Is it just me, or are none of those locks actually locked onto the bike? they look like they're just piled on.

I've heard and seen people disconnect brake cables or take the chain off.
no chain: can only walk it, slow get away.
no brakes: have fun stopping.
