Here, the administration sucks at pulling this off. They say the quiet part out loud. The law is frequently "the administration can do whatever it wants with whatever made up process it wants, you just can't say that you're going after them because you don't like their speech," and then the President tweets "I am hereby banning company X because, and only because, I don't care for their speech."

Here are all the quotes, from the article:
> "It's not at all clear that the statute can even apply to an American company where there's no foreign entanglement,"
> "These are basically safety protocols. You can debate whether these protocols are acceptable or not, but they run directly counter to the risk that the law is designed to regulate
> "A lot of things Hegseth has said and the Pentagon has done undermine their case and suggest there was personal animus and bad blood between the parties, and that the Pentagon had it out for Anthropic,
> The government was simultaneously threatening to use the (Defense Production Act) to force Anthropic to sell its services, using its services in active military operations, and saying it's too dangerous to use them in government contracts, ... Not all of these things can be true

Anthropic has let its system kill humans, although it happened in a roundabout way which in my opinion, doesn't dissolve their responsibility.
"A computer can never be held accountable, therefore a computer must never make a management decision".
The fact we are drifting away from this every day scares me.
