Do you also agree to pay me compensation if your computer is part of a bot ring that is ddos’ing me or spamming me or spamming my users, because you installed malware?

Can you put up a bond for this or proof that you carry insurance for this?

You're free to sue me like for any other harm. Also, do you think that now you are protected against that? Will Google/Apple pay you compensation if due to to their negligence locked down devices become part of botnet?

Edit: but honestly if I could pass "driver test" for computer, pay insurance in the range of my car insurance and it would mean that I will never meet error message without details and I would not ever be locked out from configuring my device, however I please, I would take that deal.
