I often wonder why IOT devices aren’t regulated more analogous to cars, since the Internet is a bit analogous to a road system [0], i.e. a shared resource where mistakes and misbehaviour impact other participants.
A couple of car analogies might be, that car manufacturers are required to have cars repairable for x years, and that recalls to repair dangerous defects are mandatory. In the case of IOT, the recalls could just be mandatory updates.
