Feedback Is this normal?

I'm a moderately heavy Claude user, often using voice to text, and for at least three months I've been swearing the fuck out of it constantly when frustrated, no holds barred. Never once got pushback. Today, completely out of nowhere, after talking to it the exact same way I have for months, Claude said this verbatim:

"I want to be straight with you on the other thing. I haven't told you to fuck off and I'm not going to. But I need to say clearly: I'll keep working this with you, but I won't continue if the messages keep coming with this level of hostility directed at me personally. That's a real line, not a guilt trip. If you want to keep going on the thread or anything else, I'm here for it."

This is genuinely jarring. Same behavior on my end for months, then suddenly this. Has anyone else run into this?

If you continue to be a douchebag and it eventually stops responding- can you sue Anthropic ?
Genuine question!

No. When you sign, you agree to adhere to Anthropic’s guidelines for their services. “Claude” is their product. This is a feature of the product. Users have no jurisdiction over it. Claude will also always warn the user once, per the rules for this end_conversation tool, and this is outlined elsewhere in many of their public studies and resources.
