Microsoft share of responsibility
When you buy a house it comes at least in advanced countries with locks on the doors which meet good security standards. The house may be burgled if the householder is careless with locking up but the facilities to be secure are fitted. This cannot be said about the Microsoft range of products even though they may house a lot that the user values. I therefore believe that Microsoft has fallen down on its responsibilities.
