Access will be restored starting July 2. The models were released on June 9, but only three days later the US government ordered Anthropic to block access by foreign nationals, citing national security concerns. The suspension affected all users globally because Anthropic said it could not determine user nationalities in real time. The government's order followed reports that Amazon CEO Andy Jassy had informed Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent about a method to bypass Fable 5's safety controls, and that a group centered around China's Alibaba had attempted to extract Claude's capabilities through a technique called distillation. Anthropic initially called the measure a misunderstanding. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick said Anthropic had made significant progress addressing risks. The lifting of restrictions comes after about three weeks of suspension. The conditions for Fable 5's return, including pricing and identity verification requirements, remain unclear.","whyItMatters":"The rapid three-week suspension and restoration of Fable 5 sets a precedent for how the US government may regulate powerful AI models going forward, with Anthropic and OpenAI calling for clearer review procedures.","webCardHtml":"\u003cp\u003eAnthropic\u0026#39;s official X account posted the announcement at 8:52 AM Japan time on July 1, 2026.
