Why does Apple have to be liable for everything you put on your phone? Is Microsoft liable for the viruses and spyware that people install on their Windows PCs?
The liability argument is weak, though Apple may have made the case itself by its stringency with the App Store. Now one could say that there was a reasonable expectation nothing he/she could get from the App Store could cause a problem in his/her life because Apple publicly embarked on a vetting process before offering the app for sale.
