Windows is not vetting all apps, and is not forcing you to bribe them 30% of your sales to be on a store fully controlled by them
But yeah, I think making corps accountable would be of great benefit to IT, if we start hitting them in the wallet I guess that's the only way to make security escape conferences and make it to software companies HQs
I get to pay a corp to get a shitty product that makes me subject all sort of security issue, without being able to blame it on anyone, and in the end I have also to pay with my time because manager X didn't think that it was important to deliver a safe product. So yeah, I want to be paid for the time I have to spend to fix corps shits
Actually, I'm pretty sure there has been some stuff that Microsoft signed, for which MS is paid (not 30% sure), that were malwares. But I'm too lazy to find it
Then again, taking the thought experiment of your comment as written, can a malware dev sue M$ for Windows Defender blocking and/or removing their software?
Also, "being sued" isn't a very strong litmus test on its own. Anyone can be sued for anything at anytime.
