We've seen tons of security issues for most vendors the last months. Outdated UPNP code, hidden services, remote access without any credentials, unknown number of CSRFs and so one.

Neither here, but companies are always trying to intimidate users.

As you wrote, Joe likes to have the ready-to-go box. And IPv6 provides a lot of opportunities for new security issues :-)
