Sure, which is why right to repair laws are so important.

I understand this discussion as being about how society should deal with it, not how you could try to make the argument internal to a company.

Right, I'm saying I don't think codifying limitations on liability in law will be effective, because it probably wouldn't be absolute enough to satisfy the lawyers. You need a law that actually says "the user must be free to modify the device".

They don't seem to be too risk averse about misusing free software though.
