You’re right, Anthropic is quite a bit worse https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2026/03/04/anthrop...

Wait - are you missing all the context on this? Anthropic pushed back against this hard, there was a whole back and forth. I'm on mobile and can't look it up for you atm but if you google about this scenario, Anthropic definitely come out of this looking a lot better than OpenAI and xAI

Did you read the article? Or are you just replying?

Anthropic has literally been working with the DoD and Plantair for 2 years now. They were key to the Iran invasion.

If thats “looking better”, keep it.

Key being “worked”, past tense

Now they’re blacklisted from government work (appeal pending) and OpenAI practically jumped to replace them immediately

You’re right it completely doesn’t matter they’ve been instrumental to ICE and the war in Iran. It’s fine now, their previous actions are excused.

Edit: the word you’re also looking for is “working” not “worked”. I have many friends on government contracts still using Claude.
