That’s absurd. That’s like saying car owners should be held responsible for how safe their car is to drive. It makes unrealistic assumptions about the competency of the end user to judge such things.

No it’s not. Rather it’s more like drivers should be held responsible for how they drive their car.

I’m not even saying responsible— just they cant reasonably complain when they drive somewhere new and they don’t like the road conditions.

Your original analogy is more like this: If a person's computer got hacked unintentionally, they shouldn’t be responsible for the damage it caused to others.
