Anthropic (ANTH) Challenges DOD Blacklisting in Federal Court

A federal appeals court in Washington, D.C., heard arguments in Anthropic's (ANTH) lawsuit against the Department of Defense (DOD) regarding its blacklisting. The DOD accused Anthropic of being a supply chain risk, a designation traditionally applied to foreign entities. During the proceedings, Judge Karen Henderson questioned the DOD's justification for the blacklisting, calling it a potential 'spectacular overreach.' Both parties will await a written ruling from the judges after two hours of questioning.
