It's more like one owner in a condominium deciding to "test" the fire alarm without first asking the condo association or letting the other owners know about it ahead of time. Or a charitable telemarketer demon-dialing at 5 am and, when you register your outrage, suggesting that if you don't want to be bothered you should turn off the ringer before you go to bed.
