So how does it work for Google to demand strong security principles of Adobe for their Flash product? Finding 400 game over bugs on their own then telling Adobe about them seemed to get more traction.
Exactly. This doesn't seem to be popular around here, but unless secure coding practices are mandated, commercial aspects (first-to-market etc.) will take precedence. This is an industry-wide policy issue. Regulation works -- we should really take a hint from Federal Aviation Regulations.
