You are SOooo right, denial of responsibility is what happens!
I am aware of instances recently where windows machines are obviously
hacked and email addresses appropriated. It's no use telling the people
they deny it.
Not always the case, but if they're not even told about it they can't fix it.

(Not too ) many years ago on of my boxes was cracked and used like this. Once

I usually go one better and do a fresh install of Fedora every even number update version. As for the above-mentioned, not a chance in h...l they would even accept what I am saying about their precious home machines. Like most windows users they are cast into granite that they are safe.
