That is a huge red-flag. While I understand that they will do some policing/censoring, this is way beyond what I would consider acceptable.

They can have a different price plan for agentic stuff, but these things where they “accidentally” whoops match on specific keywords and trigger extra usage charges is giving a evil-microsoft-vibe
