Yes, I think you’re right actually. Here’s a weaker claim which is I think it true: - When someone knows and has thought on a infohazard, the baseline is that he’s way more likely to cause harm via it than to cause good. - Thus, I’d recommend anyone who’s not actively thinking about ways to solve to prevent classes of scenario where this infohazard would end up being very bad, to try to forget this infohazard and not talk about it even to trusted individuals. Otherwise it will most likely be net negative.
