US asks Anthropic to block foreign access to Fable
🔒 Anthropic suspended access to its two most capable models, Fable 5 and Mythos 5, after receiving a US government export control directive on June 12 ordering it to block access by any foreign national. The order, citing national security, applies to foreign nationals inside and outside the United States and forced Anthropic to disable both models for all customers; other models such as Claude Opus 4.8 remain available. Anthropic says the directive followed a reported narrow jailbreak demo and is working to restore access while disputing the government's assessment.
