- Alex3917 8y agoYes. People can go to prison for malpractice in other areas, like medicine or civil engineering, why should software development be any different?
- SamReidHughes 8y agoBecause mind your own business, that's why. Or do you want to force the software industry overseas?
- sir_kin 8y agoI'd rather people be held accountable for what they create, especially when it involves me, my stuff, or my data. I'd rather firms like Equifax be regulated into the ground than get a free pass due to scaremongering. (coincidentally, Equifax is in an industry that will NEVER be forced overseas.)
- SamReidHughes 8y agoAll you want is a scapegoat for your bloodlust.
- arbie 8y agoSoftware comes with an EULA typically indemnifying the creator from any negative effects of using the software.
