Harassing employees with specific tools that may not be appropriate while crippling their autonomy and knowledge? I know that kind of boss. It's the kind of job that I quit because it becomes toxic very quickly.

He gave his child a generic Pixar-style image to show his love. Good boy, everyone can do that though. I understand that he doesn't give a fuck about his employees and his daughter. What kind of moral story are we supposed to get from that?
My answer may be harsh but I've experienced that over the years: the "perfect dad" (where the family knows nothing about it) that is making his employees quit or cry in front of everyone. I don't personally know the guy, but it gives me very bad "vibes" (haha /s) and bad memories that I don't want to experience again.

Sounds like you come with some baggage. Maybe take a break from work for a while - you must not enjoy it.
We build a zero trust AI layer for companies... this is literally a demand that we dogfood our own product.
How dare a CEO ask employees to use their own product inside a company? That's a terrible idea and never leads to anything good.

I do absolutely enjoy my new job with a manager that trusts me. I have a lot more responsibilities and it's a lot of pride and fun. I don't enjoy working with abusers though, you're right.
OTOH, I remember all the toxic managers (along with the HR, CEO, and other spineless people) who told me to chill out after having verbally abused people. A bit like the wife beater who says his wife is complaining all the time. I suspected you were one of those guys and your answer confirms it.

That's the job of each employee, CTO, and architects, together. Not the CEO. The CEO shouldn't make technical decisions like that. That's restricted to technical people who you are supposed to trust, the trust which you seem to lack.

Using your company's product isn't a technical decision. This is a ridiculous statement.

Why are you verbally abusing people? That is not very nice. I agree that you should chill out and stop doing that.
