Let's say you bought a digital camera which takes AA batteries and then a few years later Energizer makes Lithium AA (or Rayovac makes rechargeable alkalines, or whatever) batteries and you find out they don't work in your camera. I don't see how Energizer is at fault.

1) The word lie implies lack of truth when it is clearly opinion and therefore debatable and not true/false;
2) Actually yes Energizer would be at fault for providing a 'compatible' product which is actually not compatible. Not legally - morally.
This example is actually true of AA NiMH batteries in particular; the slightly lower voltage of such batteries prevents some older products from using such batteries. Example: older Gameboys do not work with AA NiMH batteries.
