If you are not liable for failing to do some thing then by definition you are not responsible for doing that thing.

- aliante 6y agoNo. I cannot be reasonably sued for blowing up my company's software systems for a failure on my part as an employee. It doesn't mean I am not responsible for keeping them up and running. You can fire me. You cannot successfully sue me for the costs of my failure.
- baddox 6y agoThe fact that a police department technically has the option to fire a police officer for not acting to prevent crime (but the public has no recourse if the department does not do this) is hardly what I would consider to be genuine responsibility on the part of police to prevent crime.
