How Google AI Overviews can destroy your VPN

When Google AI Overviews give you a wrong answer that can destroy your VPN.

So here's another one from the Google Brain. I asked Google Search:

enable disable vpn edgerouter

The answer below shows correctly how to disable the openvpn interface.
BUT, the instructions for "Enable" wouldn't just not enable the
interface, it would completely delete it, likely causing massive
hassles at a minimum.

How can Google AI be so stupid? The clue is on the right. Notice the
two referenced links. The upper one is about how to disable the vpn.
The lower one is how to REMOVE OpenVPN. It's apparent that Google AI
Overviews -- as it so commonly does -- conflated these incorrectly and
catastrophically. DO NOT TRUST AI OVERVIEWS FOR ANYTHING!
