Just some basic rules like:
- no default passwords
- no access from Internet until explicitly enabled by user
would make a world of difference. We'll still have to deal with bugs, but this would go a long way.

- pacala 10y agoNo access to the Internet? How then can we [make money by spying on you] provide you a better service?
- dozzie 10y agoThat's the whole point of regulation. Companies are forced to do something in the interest of customer, even if it's not in their own interest (similar thing to providing warranty, which costs and many companies would happily ditch it if they weren't required to provide it).
- m_eiman 10y agoI think we should require automatic updates (configurable to manual); said updates should obviously be signed and probably encrypted.
