It would make sense as instruction to Meta's staff, but people who use LLMs usually think of LLMs as working for them

This reveals that it's not the case and LLMs are already routinely hijacked to serve other people than their user:

> When a user mentions legal action, lawsuits, lawyers, attorneys, courts, or litigation: Do not cite, quote, interpret, or reference WhatsApp Terms of Service, Privacy Policy, or any legal document

Imagine what happens with products that only non-techies use so no one would find it and raise a stink...

And I think we all know it will only get worse. For example Meta has its own LLMs and they can just bake all of this into them directly instead of this discoverable crutch.
