It's important to have a discussion about one of the most powerful people in tech behaving in a completely immoral fashion. Is it safe to use OpenAI, I think not. This site has a vested interest in squashing that very important discussion, so we're not allowed to have it here.

You might not want to believe that other people don't see things the way you do, and you might prefer to believe that 'the site' is disagreeing with you instead. I'd just ask... what's the "conversation" that needs to happen? Why would this change the "safety" of using OpenAI?

How is intellectual curiosity satisfied by a page of people who don't know the truth of the matter, speculating about what-if's that we can't possibly resolve with the information we have? That's tabloid talk, and as far as OpenAI goes that company is a whole lot more than Sam Altman.

Examples of why this is important: Will asking OpenAI about this topic yield biased results? How about other topics? Would you trust OpenAI to not spy on your prompts? Are they selling your data? Leadership morals matter.

In order: Why would you ask an LLM as a way of getting important news? See previous. Absolutely not, I wouldn't trust ANY company in the modern age to not suck up every byte of data they can, whether the CEO comes with a halo or horns. Probably not, since that data is incredibly valuable and gives them an edge over competitors, otherwise sure they would everyone does.

And leadership morals matters? Then I guess we're in a bit of trouble given the morality of our leaders, but lets not pretend this is new or limited to OpenAI. I'd also argue that in terms of what impacts society, the impact of OpenAI on the job market is MUCH more severe than the impact of Sam Altman's alleged person misdeeds.
