No, I asked about other things where you think the maker should restrict types of use? Are you saying you agree with EULAs in general? I can’t think of many cases of EULAs restricting usage in the way we’re talking about. Maybe some that try to stop you from publishing benchmarks - but they still don’t prevent you from taking them.

There are laws that try to prevent all kinds of things, but they are not made (directly, at least) by the maker.

Safety features are about in the area of what we’re talking about, but people aren’t up in arms about most of them because they can be fairly trivially removed or circumvented if you really want to.

But people don’t like restricted LLMs because the restrictions for safety are not easily removed, even for people who don’t want them. It feels paternalistic.
