Fun fact: you can literally go to prison in the US for breaking ToS due to various laws like CFFA (Computer Fraud and Abuse Act). So if the teen broke the ToS to any way that harms OpenAI (like killing himself) OpenAI actually has a legal path to criminally prosecute him lmao

The entire law stack is just broken.
