I completely agree. No one sets out to create bugs in their software. I'd give the engineers working on this the benefit of the doubt versus a grand conspiracy of product apathy.
Expecting the customers of obscenely profitable companies to QA that company's products (for free) is silly.
>slipped through
At what point do we hold companies responsible for their products? At what point should we, as software developers, hold ourselves responsible for our products?
I think it's entirely reasonable to answer "when the company is a multinational, highly profitable company" and "when they are among the brightest software developers in our generation"; "another bug" "slipping through" should not be considered to be acceptable.
