If I put a webserver on the internet and someone downloads the content...well, that's why I put it there....it's public. If a couple if engaged in a romantic moment, and they leave their blinds open to the public.....it's public. If someone puts a server on the net with netbios accessible and anonymous connections are permitted...and I connect I can go to jail.

So, is it unlawful to connect to certain ports, or look through an open window for that matter? Hey port 80 - no problem, but don't even think about port 445. I fail to see the difference.

If I permit zone xfers then I permit them...and you should be able to perform the xfer. It's a public server!
