If you want to phrase it as a "personal responsibility" thing, then you should frankly be criminally liable if your system is used for a DDOS attack.

    As long as security updates are bundled with antifeature updates, this amounts to "install candy crush or go to jail!"

    You think it's funny for your system to take part in an attack potentially costing billions of dollars in damages because you can't be bothered to switch off of Windows because "you don't like what Microsoft installs with their security updates" or "actually install security updates"?
