> security requires constant updates and updates cost money

Security doesn't require constant updates if the software they shipped didn't have bugs in the first place. These updates are just fixing faults in software that I've already paid for. Similarly, if I buy a car that made have the airbags explode for no reason, the car is recalled and the airbags are replaced for free.

Sorry but security updates are required. They just don’t have to be expensive.
