Unlikely given how trivial it is to DIY this (I think...haven't myself but from afar it seems within avg hn crowd reach)

Yes, it'll likely just result in some people standing up a more dedicated purpose community hosting site of abliterated/uncensored open weight GGUF files. In a theoretical scenario where HF bans abliterated/uncensored models I could very well see the same people who are producing those now simply moving the location they upload stuff to.

To use an old analogy, it's not rocket science:

I was able to remove much of the CCP censorship from Qwen 3.8 27B for around $90 using a LoRA. I multiplied the LoRA in permanently and listed it on HuggingFace.

The cost was approximately $80 for generating synthetic data and $10 to create and integrate the LoRA.

Shouldn't loras generally be distributed without being baked in the weights? Or is "de-baking" a lora trivial?

		I distribute both.
