Reply #41: I'll even give you a concrete example of computers used in crime...

...and you can tell us if you think the victim(s) have a case against the manufacturer. Nobody
will put words in your mouth:

Back a couple of years ago, TJX Corporation (Marshall's and T.J. Maxx stores) was the victim -along with
thousands of their customers- of a massive data breach, where tens of thousands of credit card records
were stolen via a Wi-Fi connection at one of their stores. Someone sat outside the store and did some
(very profitable) war driving.

Now the question for you, jgraz:

Does TJX and/or the customers whose credit information was stolen have a reasonable case against the
makers of the Wi-Fi equipment used to commit the crime?

Do tell..
