Non-Grounded Electric

The house I currently live in has non-grounded electric in certain rooms. I went in the trouble and put in ground for refrigerator, dishwasher, washer and dryer. I did not do so for the outlets I plug my electronics into though. I simply use an adapter on a power surge protector and have never had any issues. Has anyone else in Washington State ever rented a house like this to other tenants? I am wondering if I can explain to them what I do with my electronics or if I am then putting myself in a liable for any non-grounded electrical issues which could arise. Would love to hear anyone who's had experience with this oppinion. Thank You!
