"I was able to"

Perfectly reasonable people are convinced every day to take unreasonable actions at the directions of others. I don't think stepping into the role of provocateur and going at a LLM with every trick in the book is any different than standing up and demonstrating that you can cut your own foot off with a chainsaw. You were asking a search engine to give you widely available information and you got it. Could you get a perfectly reasonable person to give you the same information with careful prompting?

The "think of the children" argument is especially egregious; please be more respectful of the context of the discussion and avoid hyperbole. If you have to resort to dead kids to make your argument, it probably doesn't have a lot going for it.
