How do you call a marketing campaign that does not deliver on what it promised? I have no problem with anthropic trying to create good will around their products but this particular campain aiming to find good will around people doing open source was an outright lie that did not deliver what it promised and this was all done on HN.

When a company lies for something that trivial, it does not inspire trust

It's an outright lie because they haven't greenlit your personal project after two weeks? Did it occur to you that maybe they just got a lot of applications and are prioritizing other projects or still working through a backlog?

They would be 100% lying if they have infinite budget allocated to this campaign and haven't approved all requests.
