Then again, that same angle grinder works for crime too. Anyone can go onto Taobao.com and for as little as 75 RMB buy an angle grinder (or just steal one somewhere) that presumably would cut through the chain or the anchor in about 20 seconds.

A portable rechargeable model can be had for 485.

In California I bought -- for $19, disk included -- a (Chinese-made) angle grinder that cut a new chain for my KLR in about five seconds. The tools of crime are cheap in China, too.
I do like TB's idea though, and will ask my building management if I can install one of those anchors, which surely is at least case hardened, etc....
