Anthropic Built a Security Operation To Monitor Protests and Threats Around Its Executives

Report: Anthropic security tracks protests, flags users to police (Credit: magnific)

Anthropic has built out an extensive internal security operation that monitors protests near its executives and offices, according to a report by The American Prospect. The firm has also reported users to police over messages sent to its Claude chatbot, in at least one case without showing police the actual messages.

The revelations come from a podcast interview with two of Anthropic's senior security officials, alongside a recent job listing and past comments the company gave to other outlets. Anthropic did not respond to The American Prospect's request for comment on the story, published on 9 September.
