Does DeepSeek Censor Its AI Answers? On These Sensitive Topics, Yes.

I'm still hazy on how open source it really is. Even if you ask it, it will tell you v3 is, and I quote "not open source". There is a github repository so there is some code available, but I get the sense that open-source is being used as a bit of a teaser here and that for-profit licensing is likely where this is headed.
Even if the code was fully available, I suspect it could take weeks to find the censorship bits.

If it IS open source someone could undo this, but I assume its more difficult than a single on/off button. That along with it being selfhostable, it might be pretty good.

But it's still censored anyway
