So when will such devices just be made illegal entirely? It doesn't seem they can be made to be safe for average people if stuff like this keeps happening and companies are unwilling to compensate people.

What if this was a lawyer talking about clients or a doctor talking about patients? Is Amazon (or Google, or Microsoft) willing to deal with such legal liabilities? Is this what move fast and break things looks like?

Edit: To those trying to downvote, remember, the Silicon Valley lives in a bubble, and for the safety of people inside and outside of the bubble, the bubble must be poked every so often. This is one of those times.
