It is quite obvious that the issue is inside the people - not inside the words. People have the ultimate power (a gift by God) to make decisions. Words can not force someone to do something - they are just sitting right there, doing nothing. Humans have flaws (probably by design - who knows) - and these flaws are the ones that all "safety" intentions MUST address. But 90% of humans prefer the easy path.

Even with that attitude, the human flaws that make them act on those words, are known, and are exploitable and exploited.

If someone makes a device which is only safe when used safely, and they give it out to all despite being told of the risks, I think they are (or should be) liable for the misuse.

I don't know which religion you follow. ᚦᛟᚱ᛬ᛟᚷ᛬ᛚᛟᚲᛁ᛬ᚺᛖᛁᛚᛊᚨ.

If you want a biblical reference, parable of the sower is just as valid when it's the word of satan.

Well, I am not such a strict follower of a religion but I believe that if someone listens to Satan - the consequences are his/her own responsibility, not a Satan's guilt. If I am not mistaken - Satan makes offers. You can accept or pass over. If you accept - you are liable, not the other way around. I am not aware of anything in this world that is safe even when used in unsafe way. Hiding an information just because someone thinks it is "not safe" is a classic censorship. Once the words are censored - there is literally just one step to the censoring of thoughts.
