Vendors have to go through FCC certification before shipping consumer electronics. If the FCC adds security audit to this,maybe so much of these silly insecurities could be solved before leaving the factory(to avoid wastes FCC certification fees).

In reality politics isn't so simple,but politicians these days keep having hearing after hearing and declaration after another on improving "cyber" security. Is my desire here really hopeless?

EDIT: FCC rule I was referencing: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Title_47_CFR_Part_15
