The standard proviso about metaphors being given, I see your point. Seatbelts constitute an effort, seatbelts save lives, testing with dummies and survival results show it. Seatbelts are real security measures. Still, more than 60K people die every year in motor accidents in North America and in the EU. Seatbelts cannot save life in all cases, such as outrageous speeds, but they are a sane measure for most -- if not all -- use-cases of driving. In this compromise, the major purveyor of OS and security products itself was compromised. No company, no $agency did due diligence. Some of these victims are supposed to be in the business of high-assurance and due diligence. None of the systems that we are conditioned to believe to be effective actually worked. And it was a standard use-case for all the victims.
