What did people think would happen if they try to hold third-parties liable for the actions of others? Third-parties have very little interest in defending your diversity. And if the FCC starts extending multi-million dollar fines from television to cable and Internet, you'll find very few providers you can migrate quickly, or otherwise, too. Look at the US Federal EnergyStar program. It is nearly impossible to buy a PC which doesn't comply with EnergyStar requirements, and even Microsoft was forced to change Windows default settings to comply. If there was a SecurityStar logo, would PC makers and providers have to comply with it?
