Here's a copy of the letter that Commerce sent to Anthropic (note who it'a NOT addressed to...)

-------

June 30, 2026

Tom Brown Chief Compute Officer Anthropic 548 Market Street San Francisco, CA 94104

Dear Mr. Brown:

Since the issuance of my previous letters, dated June 12, 2026 and June 26, 2026, Anthropic has taken steps in close coordination with the U.S. government to address the risks associated with Claude Mythos 5 and Claude Fable 5. Among other things, Anthropic has agreed to proactively detect and address security risks associated with the models; to work diligently with the U.S. government on protocols and standards and releases for Mythos, Fable, and future models; and to inform the U.S. government of any malicious activity.

In light of these actions and commitments, as well as the Bureau of Industry and Security's evaluation of the diversion risks now presented by Claude Mythos 5 and Claude Fable 5, the controls in the June 12 letter are withdrawn. A license is no longer required for the export, reexport, or in-country transfer, including deemed export or deemed reexport, of the Mythos or Fable models.

Commerce reserves the right to reevaluate the decisions made in this letter and the necessity of reimposing a license requirement, should circumstances change or should Anthropic fail to adhere to its commitments.

If you have any questions about this letter, please contact me or the Under Secretary of Commerce for Industry and Security, Jeffrey Kessler, at (202) 255-1864.

Sincerely,

Howard W. Lutnick

Chaotic governance model and uncertain business environment by the Trump admin as usual.

Hey it's a perfectly pro-business environment as long as your business kisses the ring vigorously and continuously with perpetually escalating intensity.

For those who haven't been following this closely, who is the missing addressee?

Dario Amodei (Anthropic's CEO) had previously been directly liaising with the government and apparently it wasn't going well.
