Maybe we should just learn to live with that sort of things, and build a tool/product that works with that cycle in mind and offers it as a feature.

Searching for "abliterated" or "uncensored" on Huggingface reveals a ton of fine-tuned models. Add "LLM" as a suffix and put it in your favorite search engine and you'll find a bunch more.

Regardless if it's a RFC, standard or whatever, protocols need to be precise, exact and correct. And I think they wrote MCP with the idea of others using it, otherwise why even make it public if it's just for their own usage?
