I wrote some words for TechCrunch about the Anthropic ban shitshow. https://techcrunch.com/2026/06/15/the-us-governments-anthropic-models-ban-was-never-about-an-ai-jailbreak/

The US government's Anthropic models ban was never about an AI jailbreak | TechCrunch

The Trump administration's decision that forced Anthropic to pull its latest cybersecurity models could be reactionary, retaliatory, or both, but the message is clear: The AI industry isn't immune from U.S. government interference.

The scam email I wrote about last week (https://blog.kamens.us/2026/06/11/hilariously-bad-scam-email-obviously-written-by-ai/) is apparently part of an ongoing campaign. They're getting better at it, but it's not clear what their end goal is.

The US government steps on a rake with export control restrictions on Fable 5 and Mythos, by @k8em0 https://www.lutasecurity.com/post/the-fable-5-export-controls-harm-us-cyber-defense

The Fable 5 Export Controls Harm US Cyber Defense

Restricting Fable and Mythos has the same unintended consequence of harming defense while doing nothing to impede attackers. We can't export control our way to cyber resilience.

NEW: A group of dozens of cybersecurity experts published an open letter criticizing the U.S. government ban on the export of Anthropic’s powerful AI models Fable and Mythos.

The group said the ban is going to hurt cybersecurity defenders working to secure their code and products, and claimed it was based on a misunderstanding.

"This action has taken the best models away from defenders," the letter read.

A group made up of dozens of cybersecurity experts urged the White House to remove export control restrictions on Anthropic’s models Fable and Mythos, arguing that the order is going to limit the ability of cybersecurity defenders to secure their software and products.
