If it's broken to begin with, it's not really "breaking the users security settings". Specifically if it can be broken just by saying "break it", then it's broken from the start.

In that sense NO ENTRY signs are also broken. And so is the robots.txt protocol.

But "No Entry" signs and robots.txt are broken for the same reason. We all know that, so how is it a counterargument?

No one trusts their security to a sign or a robots.txt. Get a security guard and an encrypted directory, and get a better way to manage your cookies.
