</span>I think the principle from Ezekiel 33 applies very well here:<br>
<br>
The word of the Lord came to [Ezekiel]: "Son of man, speak to your<br>
people and tell them: Suppose I bring the sword against a land, and the<br>
people of that land select a man from among them, appointing him as<br>
their watchman, and he sees the sword coming against the land and blows<br>
his trumpet to warn the people. Then, if anyone hears the sound of the<br>
trumpet but ignores the warning, and the sword comes and takes him away,<br>
his blood will be on his own head. Since he heard the sound of the<br>
trumpet but ignored the warning, his blood is on his own hands. If he<br>
had taken warning, he would have saved his life. However, if the<br>
watchman sees the sword coming but doesn’t blow the trumpet, so that the<br>
people aren’t warned, and the sword comes and takes away their lives,<br>
then they have been taken away because of their iniquity, but I will<br>
hold the watchman accountable for their blood."<br>

<br>
We are responsible for warning; users are responsible for taking action.<br>
