As for the time, if it's a security issue then I'd say they're required to keep them updated as long as they allow them to use their network....but not all updates are security issues. The courts would need to look at the specific claims but IMO the companies would find it easier to simply provide all updates.
BTW, they don't need to push the updates to fulfill their responsibilities-all they need to do is provide them along with clear notification & instructions for obtaining & installing them. If the customers fail to install them (as most undoubtedly will) it's not the company's fault.
