Self-host open models or risk bans: why 'safety-first' labs make own-hardware the safer bet

Blogger gnukeith urges heavy users to self-host open models (Qwen, GLM Flash, Xiaomi, etc.): 'safety-first' AI labs are so sensitive that they may ban you for uses outside your original scope, and real work demands evolving tools. Self-hosting means the model runs on your own hardware, no one dictates what you can do — you are your own limiter.
