Are any developers avoiding working on IoT devices/interfaces because of the uncertainty regarding the security of these devices?

I have no idea of the liability of developers in this space, but the fact that the question even comes up in my mind certainly gives me pause.

"Please don't roll your own security" isn't much of an option when many of these things are running on custom stuff from the ground up. But, I doubt many will pay for a secure foundation to run on... Makes me wonder if the windows for IoT has any promise.

I guess my uninformed concern is… if I write an app that has an interface that manages a device that is suddenly embroiled in a class-action lawsuit, what are the chances that I'd be sucked into that lawsuit?
