Nokia never executed on a touch screen OS. If i remember their final attempt with a Linux based OS was considered "good", but it was too little, too late. It was already over when they were scooped up by Microsoft, who were desper

And you write 100% bug free and secure software right? There is no way a law can account for every malicious tech bro trying to subvert it on first pass, or even after that. It is always a constant battle with bad actors.
