A US federal court ruled that the government unlawfully retaliated against AI company Anthropic by designating it a supply chain risk without proper basis, violating constitutional protections and exceeding statutory authority. The ruling invalidates the designation and related government orders, limiting national security claims used to punish dissenting vendors in federal technology supply chains.
