> Autorun of malware when you plugged in a USB drive was also a Windows issue, I'd classify this as the same security problem.
Not really. AutoRun ran whatever was on the USB drive, with no oversight. This installs a driver from a company that's supposed to be reputable enough to get their driver signed by MS and pass validation. LG breached that trust here.
