Nobody wants to spend the moola to set up this system. On the other hand, they could pass legislation that states that when you use your computer, you alone are fully and completely responsible for whatever happens: i.e., if a vulnerability on your computer is exploited, damaging it, you are responsible. If this caused you to lose valuable work for your company, the company can hold you accountable, just as if you deleted it deliberately. Of course, you could only be prosecuted if there was a well-publicized fix out there that would have rendered your computer secure. This might have the end effect of increasing awareness of security updates and virus safety. Then again, it might not.</blockquote>
