In the event of a catastrophic outcome, who owns the failure -- the product maker, the library coder, or the company that chose the product? We look at the sticky issue of liability.

It's generally the company actually selling the product, if anyone is actually liable at all. It would be rare for any developer to be held liable unless someone was actually malicious.

The use of generated code doesn't really change anything if someone is going to claim ownership and the liability generally isn't related to code anyway.
