Jason Clinton of Anthropic's security team replied that "it was always going to be this way — we tried to warn the world," echoing earlier warnings about AI misuse risk. Critics shot back that obvious defensive options are nerfed and locked behind special enterprise plans, leaving ordinary users to rely on Chinese models for defense — a pointed jab at safety features becoming a paid commodity. The exchange sparked debate over accessibility and commercialization of AI security capabilities.
