This is fascinating and, to my mind, a separate issue. The original post was not about defects in the code or infringement issues (the typical "no warranty" scenarios), but about whether developers of platforms designed for user interaction (for example) should build in user safety features up front.
Definitely some overlaps, but I'm certainly not suggesting "developers of FOSS should be liable for bugs", or anything like that.
