This is what I find surprising about commercial software. All hardware comes with a warranty which covers manufacturing defects for a certain period of time. And invariably a replacement is offered if a certain unit turns out to be defective. And in cases of design defects which are a health hazard to customers, the product is recalled and the customers possibly refunded.
Well, when you purchase a book, what kind of warranty do you get? Same with a software too! :-D

The World Social Forum is not an organisation, not a united front
platform, but "an open meeting place for reflective thinking,
democratic debate of ideas, formulation of proposals, free exchange of
experiences and inter-linking for effective action, by groups and
movements of civil society that are opposed to neo-liberalism and to
domination of the world by capital and any form of imperialism, and
are committed to building a society centred on the human person
