> It’s worrying to me that Anthropic, a foreign corporation, would even have the visibility necessary to enforce usage restrictions on US government customers.

"Foreign" to who? I interpretted your comment as foreign to the US government (please correct me if I'm wrong) and I was confused because Anthropic is a US company.

Ah my mistake. I thought they were French. I got them confused with Mistral.

The concern remains even if it’s a US corporation though (not government owned servers).

Anthropic is pretty clearly using the Häagen-Dasz approach here, call yourself Anthropic and your product Claude so you seem French. Why?

According to Claude, it’s named after Claude Shannon, who was American.

Everyone spies and abuses individuals' privacy. What difference does it make? (Granted I would agree with you if Anthropic were indeed a foreign based entity, so am I contradicting myself wonderfully?)

Ah yes - Mistral is the largest of the non-US, non-Chinese AI companies that I'm aware of.

Very much so, I completely agree.
