if i make a microwave oven and it thru my poor design causes damage to
property or persons, then i am responsible. same with cars and their poor
design. if i am a builder and my design allows for enviromental illnesses,
i am responsible. etc.
the security argument is not so good frankly. the holes explioted by this
virus were all well known but not well fixed and the fixes not made
agressively available -- as say an auto recall would do. or a laptop
recall for that matter.
