Judge blocks Pentagon blacklist of Anthropic

A federal judge in San Francisco has struck down the Pentagon's blacklisting of Anthropic as a supply chain risk, ruling that the government's actions violated Anthropic's constitutional rights. U.S. District Judge Rita Lin found that the Department of Defense violated the First Amendment by designating Anthropic a supply chain risk “based on a desire to make a public example” out of the company, and its actions were not founded on any “articulable basis.” Lin wrote in her order: “Defendants claim that because of Anthropic’s ‘increasingly hostile manner through the press’ and its criticism of the Department of War’s views on AI use, Defendants ‘cannot trust Anthropic to ensure the integrity of its models’  . . . Neither the Constitution nor the federal statute invoked by Defendants allows them to impose sweeping penalties based principally on Anthropic’s critique of the Administration’s views.” CNBC notes that Anthropic's litigation in Washington D.C. is still ongoing, and until that case is resolved, the company still technically remains a supply chain risk.
