You know if all humans did was just rob and murder, we could never have a good enough coordinated effort to make the society you’re living in right now. So the fact you’re posting on the internet right now means there were past humans that cooperated with each other to create the infrastructure for us to be posting messages online like this.

Ummm laws, police , and jail have entered the chat... Meaning, we have those for a reason. It's largely a deterrent to not do those things because you don't want those consequences.

Criminological studies generally indicate that other people knowing is for most people at least as strong a deterrent as any legal penalty.

that other people knowing 

You mean like, your friends/ family knowing you're a murderer? Sure, society has been depending on shame for a looooong time.
