🔥 The US government giveth, and the US government taketh away.

Anthropic''s Fable 5 and Mythos 5 got hit with surprise export controls on June 12 after a jailbreak exploit exposed security gaps the feds didn''t like. Two and a half weeks later — June 30 — restrictions lifted. Fable 5 is back online as of July 1.

Here''s what nobody''s saying clearly: this was never just about the jailbreak. It was the government flexing to set a precedent — "we can cut off your most powerful models anytime, and you''ll play ball." Anthropic had to agree to intelligence sharing and early government access on future models. That''s the real story here.
