  For those that want to see the full text of the letter Anthropic received when designated a Supply Chain Risk by Secretary Hegseth: https://storage.courtlistener.com/ ... @CharlieBul58993 @ARozenshtein

  Anthropic has sued to overturn BOTH the supply chain risk designation AND Trump's order requiring every federal agency to stop using Claude.

  Anthropic says it's being punished for protected speech and that “no federal statue authorizes the actions taken here” [image]

  Reading the official letter designating Anthropic a supply chain risk is a jaw dropping experience. I look forward to seeing the Pentagon's formal legal arguments that “less intrusive measures are not reasonably available.” Seems like a stretch! [image]

  I read this and wondered: how is it that the DoW/DoD achieves having an official headquarters in D.C. when the Pentagon is in Virginia? like, how mechanically does that work? what is the address DoW uses in DC for its administrative HQ? and learned that USPS simply reshapes [imag…

  one thing that crossed my mind when I read Secretary Hegseth's initial tweet about the supply chain risk thing is that the way he hyphenated ‘supply-chain risk’ felt very openai reasoning model coded. [image]

  Wilmer Hale, one of the law firms Trump tried, but failed, to rein in with an EO has filed a lawsuit on behalf of Anthropic against, well, just about everyone in the administration. [image]

  Anthropic sued the Trump administration over its blacklisting and “supply chain risk” designation for the AI company...  (full complaint is embedded at the end of my colleague's story here): www.cnbc.com/2026/03/09/a... by Ashley Capoot at @cnbc.com

• @flingjore.com @flingjore.com on bluesky

  Anthropic sues the Trump administration to reverse a Pentagon “supply chain risk” label.  The San Francisco firm challenges the designation, issued after it refused unrestricted military use of its Claude AI, calling the retaliatory move an unlawful overreach of executive power.

• @seldo.com Laurie Voss on bluesky

  “We do not think the government should force us to assist in making autonomous murder robots” is the lowest possible bar I can imagine and yet Anthropic is the only company meeting it.  I don't know whether to applaud or weep. www.reuters.com/world/anthro...

  I signed this brief opposing the Supply Chain Risk designation against Anthropic, and supporting the importance of restrictions on domestic surveillance and autonomous weapon applications for current models. Very grateful for all the people who worked hard to make it happen.

• @turn_trout Alex Turner on x

  I signed an amicus brief supporting Anthropic's right to do business without governmental retaliation. As an AI expert, I attest that Anthropic's technical concerns are legitimate, and no laws were designed to protect against AI analysis of surveillance data.

• @thezvi Zvi Mowshowitz on x

  You love to see it. As opposed to the government, whose response was “The president “will never allow a radical left, woke company” to dictate how the military operates,” which is not how I would choose to respond to a lawsuit claiming retaliation for protected speech. But hey.

• @william_fitz William Fitzgerald on x

  Staffers in AI labs have so much power the US military is scared of them not doing exactly what they want. This fear goes back to #CancelMaven campaign at Google which pissed of the military guys. They're worried it'll happen again in AI labs, and my god do i hope it does.

  Very good to see. Respect to all involved.

  This is good—not so much because it will convince the judge (though it might), but because it's a way of building norms of solidarity within Silicon Valley.

  Remember: reports said Anthropic made $4.5bn for all of 2025, and all of this guff about “$19bn in annualized revenue” no longer make sense, especially as that “exceeds $5 billion” line is from a lawsuit filed in *march*. This is a scandal! [image]

• @peard33 Paresh Dave on x

  Court filings: Anthropic has spent $10 bln on training and inference. Its generated $5 bln in all-time revenue. Now billions of dollars in revenue for just this year is at stake and customers/prospects are already asking for new terms or backing out. https://www.wired.com/...

• @edzitron Ed Zitron on x

  $5 billion TO DATE? This heavily suggests that Anthropic? Over $10 billion in inference and training costs? This heavily suggests that almost every story about Anthropic's revenue and costs they've leaked is wrong and that it's been misleading the media.

• @edzitron Ed Zitron on x

  The only thing that makes sense here is that Anthropic's 2025 revenues were much lower than $4.5 billion. $5bn ALL TIME? Through march? Remember this is filed with a court. Suggests Anthropic is a much much smaller business than we believed
