There's a kind of funny warranty/liability split when you cant test the quality of your own lock. Locks are generally a let the buyer beware kinda proposition.

There's a kind of funny warranty/liability split when you cant test the quality of your own lock. Locks are generally a let the buyer beware kinda proposition. It's up to me to decide if this lock is good enough to protect the tools in my shed. If i'm explicitly forbidden from investigating that - i think the manufacturer should be required to say how much of your losses they'll cover when the lock fails. Obviously the current state of affairs is _none_ and i can't lawfully tell if the lock sucks or not. We'd all be better off if lock makers were forced to choose. either i can pick my own lock (evaluate my own risk) or advertise how much insurance comes with the purchase of the lock (evaluate risk for me). (i fully appreciate the world does not work this way. I'm just asserting it would be better for everyone if it did.)
