Comment on Why shouldn’t firearm manufacturers be held accountable for the use of their weapons in crimes?

Why shouldn’t Microsoft be held accountable for everything illegal people do on Windows? Why shouldn’t pharmacists be held responsible for prescription drug abuse? Why shouldn’t a social media website be held accountable for users infringing copyright? If something is used illegally and the person who made it is held accountable, that doesn’t really make sense even if you dislike the thing. For example, I hate YouTube, but it doesn’t make sense for them to be held accountable for users posting copyright infringing content.
