I think the principle from Ezekiel 33 applies very well here:

The word of the Lord came to [Ezekiel]: "Son of man, speak to your
people and tell them: Suppose I bring the sword against a land, and the
people of that land select a man from among them, appointing him as
their watchman, and he sees the sword coming against the land and blows
his trumpet to warn the people. Then, if anyone hears the sound of the
trumpet but ignores the warning, and the sword comes and takes him away,
his blood will be on his own head. Since he heard the sound of the
trumpet but ignored the warning, his blood is on his own hands. If he
had taken warning, he would have saved his life. However, if the
watchman sees the sword coming but doesn’t blow the trumpet, so that the
people aren’t warned, and the sword comes and takes away their lives,
then they have been taken away because of their iniquity, but I will
hold the watchman accountable for their blood."

We are responsible for warning; users are responsible for taking action.
