an update on the openai/codex ban: i was curious about my tv, found a vuln (not with codex), popped a shell, and started poking around. the intrigue of my hobby project while i had the flu wasn't something i could've predicted. to be clear: the ban almost certainly had nothing to do with using openai -specifically- for my samsung reverse engineering work. i have no reason to believe it did. the real issue seems deeper. i talked to friends using astra/6.1 sol for both cyber work and normal software tasks. the ones who never hit daybreak (and weren't in the blue program) said they spend a while "warming it up", getting the agent into a flowstate with substitute words and roundabout explanations that jailbreak the context. once that's done, the agent starts talking the same way and skipping tokens. if you do serious reverse engineering without those jailbreaks, daybreak's content-hidden tripwire looks at the prompt or output in isolation and sees something indistinguishable from malware development. i think the better fix is making the system track intent across the whole context (and through compressions) instead of punishing blunt technical language. i believe i got banned because i just used normal terms. talking about memory, trampoline hooks, encrypted/read-protected pages, even entirely locally, looks sinister out of context. once daybreak trips, it poisons the context cache. new conversations start failing too. eventually even normal tooling work and /goals would randomly trip it. arguing your case makes it worse. the incentives here seem strange to me. people who obfuscate from the start never seem to have problems. people who just use the actual terminology get more and more refusals. account's still closed. pretty sure it's just from tripping daybreak too many times (even on non-cyber work). for now i'm moving to open weight models and locking down my own compute. if these tools are part of how you work now, it's worth thinking about how to keep reliable access. please don't harass tibo, roon or other oai people. from their public comments it sounds like they already know and agree the current setup is too strict. sorry for the interlude, brb, back to getting the report and a repo out to fix TVs.
