So big scary warning, but nothing than "audit your shit" to address it? I'm not an expert, and in fact just got ollama w/deepseek running on my machine last night... but like, isn't it common courtesy to at least suggest a couple of ways to mitigate things when posting a "big scary warning" like that?
