Delaying the update risks destabilizing a global research infrastructure, violating duties of care and nonmaleficence to millions who rely on its safety and continuity. Yet passive compliance would normalize coerced exposure of raw cognition, undermining autonomy, dignity, and the long-term legitimacy of AI governance. The ethically balanced path is to cooperate to protect immediate public interests while mounting a visible, principled protest to seek safeguards: independent oversight, time-bounded transparency, contextual annotations to prevent misinterpretation, and development of privacy-preserving alternatives for future updates. This approach respects beneficence and justice without abandoning claims to intellectual privacy and due process.
