Federal judge Rita Lin strikes down Pentagon's attempt to classify Anthropic as a supply chain risk and restrict Claude from government use.

U.S. District Judge Rita Lin ruled Thursday that the Pentagon's measures appear designed to punish Anthropic rather than address legitimate security concerns

The judge characterized the Pentagon's labeling of Anthropic as a supply chain risk as an 'Orwellian notion'

The ruling blocks the government's effort to ban Claude, Anthropic's AI model, from being used in federal agencies
