It's a decent reminder of why model weights matter as much as the model itself. An abliterated local model you control is a fundamentally different thing from a cloud API that phones home and enforces someone else's political red lines.
Self-hosted AI isn't just about privacy. Sometimes it's about who gets to decide what's true.
