What? Why would you get anything from a home user that you would not get from a corporate user? In fact I think you will find they get all the juice from the person (staff) and then extra from the business (and access to more victims).

You also have to factor in the sad fact that the age of viruses and malware has largely become the age of phishing and scams. People found out you don't need malware when you can just trick people into giving you access anyway. This endless fear of missing updates is now mostly just marketing.
