ChatGPT has a guardrail that benefits employers instead of users.

I asked chatgpt to help me bypass Microsoft Teams status changes so it would always show me as “online.”

It refused to help with simple tricks like putting a heavy object on a key in Notepad or staying in presentation mode. I was just curious to find more tricks, but learned that even though this doesn’t break any laws, gpt refuses because it considers it a way to evade or misrepresent workplace monitoring. Even though I’m the one paying for gpt and not my workplace.

Why the hell is this guardrail on a private account?
