Anthropic vows legal action against Pentagon designation. AI startup Anthropic announced Friday it will challenge the Trump administration's decision to designate the company as a supply chain risk, marking an unprecedented clash between a major American tech firm and federal government. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth issued the order following President Trump's directive to remove Anthropic and Claude from all federal agency workflows. The dispute centers on Anthropic's refusal to allow its Claude AI model for mass domestic surveillance or fully autonomous weapons systems. The company stated it negotiated in good faith but sought narrow assurances protecting Americans' privacy rights and preventing unreliable AI deployment in autonomous weapons. Anthropic emphasized these exceptions have not impacted any government missions.
