These days, Profit margins tend to be maximised. If they can make a little more profit by cutting a little more corners, they will probably do it. It takes some ethics not to maximize profits at the expense of everything else. If you want better security, you'll have to find a way to make it more profitable for them —if not as an individual, as a community, or even as a society. If better products aren't more profitable, you'll inevitably end up with lemons. The other path, questioning the profits paradigm altogether, is not easy.
