If they have to update it after they shipped it, that means they shipped it before it was done. I don't get why we all put up with that. And before you say "but what about the complexity?!?" I'll respond with "why do you think you need that?"
I'd pay so much more for simple tools I can buy once and never have to buy another again.
- baby_souffle 2y agoAre you excluding security specific fixes in that policy?
- jcgrillo 2y agoI'm awful tempted to say no. If it's so complex it can't be made secure before shipping it, maybe that's just too much complexity. I could possibly be convinced otherwise, but it would have to be a compelling argument. EDIT: also a lot of the "security" stuff around consumer devices is just active user hostility. I don't need my office printer to connect directly to my home WiFi, a USB cable is fine. If making a secure WiFi enabled printer isn't something we can do as a species, maybe it's just not a reasonable goal.
