You misunderstand - the government issued a directive to Anthropic that effectively forced them to pull access from everyone, even their own employees.

The directive was to remove access to non-Americans, not to pull access from everyone. It’s because Anthropic cannot verify the identity of its users that it pulled access from everyone, not because the government explicitely requested that.
Yes that's what "effectively" means.
If their operation team is not US based that's going to be difficult to operate. They would have to reorganize the whole company as I'm pretty sure that they are not employing only US citizen.
>I'm pretty sure that they are not employing only US citizen
Understatement. They have 14 offices, only 4 of them are in the US (6 are in EMEA, 4 in APAC).
> directive was to remove access to non-Americans
Did Hegseth pull his supply-chain risk BS?
No - this was a separate power unrelated to the supply chain risk which is still in effect.
