OpenAI limits GPT-5.6 rollout after government request, says restrictions shouldn’t be the norm

OpenAI has limited the rollout of GPT-5.6 after a government request. This restriction is seen as a temporary measure, but OpenAI believes it should not become a standard practice. The company argues that such restrictions would hinder access to its tools for various users. OpenAI is advocating for a more open approach to government access.
