Anthropic's own marketing and urban legends spawned by them is to blame too. They built up too much BS around mythos and project glasswing

Marketing is never ever to blame. Remember a few months ago when the U.S. government labelled them a supply chain risk? What eventually happened was that a federal judge issued a temporary injunction while calling it a "classic First Amendment retaliation." The Constitution protects such marketing; the government is not allowed to be maddened by such marketing.
They certainly can restrict technology that is deemed to be a national security risk.
Not much stops them from saying it's due to national security, when it's actually due to the guy in the chair having a fit of emotions. And the current admin has a very long streak of declaring things as national emergencies when those things just so happen to be something they recently lost face on.

The government can not be mad, it’s an organization. People in the government are “allowed” to feel however they’d like; their actions are restricted. And the point being made above is that the government might’ve believed their marketing and acted accordingly.
