No. No it is NOT absurd.
If someone, especially an ostensibly reputable company, is selling poison, they should be on the hook for selling poison. Period. End of discussion.
"butbut people should see others dying and not drink the poison!"
No. No, it IS NOT the customer's fault for being duped by false advertisement. Fuck, you want to live in a hellscape where evil is shrugged off as, "should've known better."
Fuck that, and fuck anyone naive enough to defend such a jouvenile, ignorant position.
They are not offering poison tho. They are offering a product that does exactly what its supposed to do. There is no evil here, there is no wrongdoing. Its just a bad, incomplete system.
Also i havent heard of any promise or advertisement of these things being all knowing perfect information databases. Thats just what people tend to think because it is beyond their comprehension.
The real hellscape would be a world where you cant create anything new because someone might abuse your invention somehow.
