That label underpins a broader ban on using the company's technology. A federal judge reviewing the case said the government hasn't produced evidence to support it. The ruling stops short of striking the ban down, but it puts the administration on notice that its justification is thin.\n\nSupply-chain risk labels have mostly been a tool for restricting foreign tech, think Huawei or TikTok, not for boxing out a U.S. company. If the label can't survive judicial scrutiny, it suggests the ban was built on politics rather than a documented security threat. That matters for every AI company watching how far Washington can stretch national-security language to control who gets to sell software to the government.\n\nCalling something a security risk is easy. Proving it in front of a judge is turning out to be the harder part.","[\"anthropic\",\"ai regulation\",\"supply-chain risk\",\"courts\"]","2026-07-30T20:26:38.000Z","2026-08-13T21:15:22.621Z","2026-08-13T21:15:34.407Z","published",null,[],"policy",[26,27,28,29],"anthropic","ai regulation","supply-chain risk","courts",[31],{"name":32,"url":33},"TechCrunch","https:\u002F\u002Ftechcrunch.com\u002F2026\u002F07\u002F30\u002Fjudge-says-trump-admin-still-lacks-evidence-for-anthropic-supply-chain-risk-label\u002F",0,{"sections":36},[37,42,46,50,55,60,65,70,75,80,85,90,95,100],{"name":38,"slug":39,"count":40,"latest_published_at":41},"AI","ai",3293,"2026-08-20T04:00:00.000Z",{"name":43,"slug":44,"count":45,"latest_published_at":41},"Security","security",435,{"name":47,"slug":24,"count":48,"latest_published_at":49},"Policy",210,"2026-08-19T09:32:27.000Z",{"name":51,"slug":52,"count":53,"latest_published_at":54},"Deals","deals",179,"2026-06-29T20:02:07.000Z",{"name":56,"slug":57,"count":58,"latest_published_at":59},"Hardware","hardware",140,"2026-08-19T18:25:42.000Z",{"name":61,"slug":62,"count":63,"latest_published_at":64},"Consumer Tech","consumer-tech",95,"2026-08-18T16:05:00.000Z",{"name":66,"slug":67,"count":68,"latest_published_at":69},"Science","science",90,"2026-08-19T18:41:02.000Z",{"name":71,"slug":72,"count":73,"latest_published_at":74},"Software","software",73,"2026-08-18T07:51:50.000Z",{"name":76,"slug":77,"count":78,"latest_published_at":79},"Dev Tools","dev-tools",69,"2026-08-18T04:00:00.000Z",{"name":81,"slug":82,"count":83,"latest_published_at":84},"Startups","startups",47,"2026-08-19T19:13:46.000Z",{"name":86,"slug":87,"count":88,"latest_published_at":89},"Gaming","gaming",41,"2026-07-09T04:00:00.000Z",{"name":91,"slug":92,"count":93,"latest_published_at":94},"General","general",33,"2026-08-18T22:18:13.000Z",{"name":96,"slug":97,"count":98,"latest_published_at":99},"Reviews","reviews",20,"2026-06-24T12:00:01.000Z",{"name":101,"slug":102,"count":103,"latest_published_at":104},"How-To","how-to",6,"2026-06-16T09:00:00.000Z"]
