More experiments. If you paste the comment (instead of the url) after your prompt, then it kind of works but still detects prompt injection, it just can't delimit it from your prompt, and so will still accept some of the prompts if the

We are so screwed we can't even quantify how screwed we are, because the entire planet and population are contaminated and have been contaminated for a long time now, so there is no longer a control group to compare to.
