MODERATORS
While I agree with your premise, people also need to be aware that some random thing they started fiddling with can be problematic, and should maybe do some basic research on what they're fiddling with. We absolutely need to hold creators responsible for their creations, but this also shouldn't absolve people of using their brains and thinking critically.
Then it should at least come with a warning label, and perhaps, with the ability to block children from picking it up or playing with it.
Those who create dangerous things have a duty to warn others of their potential dangers before leaving them haphazardly about.
