Big Tech backs Anthropic in fight against Trump administration

Anthropic, an AI company, is suing the Trump administration, claiming the government is retaliating against it for refusing to let its AI tools be used in mass surveillance (monitoring large populations without consent) and autonomous weapons (weapons that can make decisions independently). Major tech companies like Microsoft and Google have publicly supported Anthropic's lawsuit, arguing that the government's actions violate free speech rights and could harm the entire technology sector.
