Not sure how better usability wrt to sharing from the camera would ensure that this kind of thing never happens. I think cameras tend to work well over time because that's the expectation of the manufacturers and the purchasers, and photographers would rebel en masse otherwise. If most consumers would be a little more prickly about these things and strongly punish these greedy companies, I don't think we'd see nearly as much of this. This kind of thing simply wouldn't fly in the 60s, but we've been conditioned to just accept it. Well that and consumer protection is basically non-existent. I still want to share photos easily from my camera though!
