Judge rules that the Pentagon's Anthropic ban was 'illegal and baseless'

U.S. District Judge Rita Lin declared the Pentagon’s designation of Anthropic as a supply-chain risk and the ban on its Claude model illegal, ordering federal agencies to cease enforcement. Anthropic refused to remove safeguards after Department of Defense pressure. The company’s revenue reached $11.5 billion, 14 times last year’s quarter, while it remains labeled a supply-chain risk pending a second ruling.
