At the time of the dispute, the San Francisco-based company vowed to sue over Hegseth’s call to designate Anthropic a supply chain risk, an unprecedented move to apply a law intended to counter foreign threats to a U.S. company.<\/p>\n

Anthropic said it would challenge what it called a legally unsound action \u201cnever before publicly applied to an American company.\u201d<\/p>\n

The looming legal battle could have huge implications on the balance of power in Big…<\/p>\n
