New智元 reports
Just now, Anthropic launched the most severe cleansing in history.
The official also introduced a new risk control policy, explicitly banning unsupported regions.
This new regulation will officially take effect on November 12.
Just yesterday, Anthropic released Fable 5.2 and officially started its IPO roadshow.
However, for developers, the real shocker is this third move.
Why is this considered the most severe in history?
Because Anthropic has completely turned its back, precisely targeting many users' conventional paths.
The new regulation clearly states that any country or region not listed is not supported, including the following three situations——
First, the use by users in physical locations in unsupported regions. This includes (even) users and personnel of originally supported entities.
Second, the use of entities established or headquartered in unsupported regions, and the use by its users or personnel, regardless of whether these individuals are physically located in supported regions.
Third, the use of entities controlled by individuals or entities in unsupported regions, directly or indirectly holding a majority stake or control, including their users or personnel, regardless of whether these individuals are physically located in supported regions.
Translation: ——
First, it looks at where you 'physically are' (physical presence ban).
If your physical location is in an unsupported region, even if you are an employee of a compliant multinational company, it is banned.
Second, it looks at where the company 'is registered' (registration location/headquarters ban).
If the company headquarters is in an unsupported region, even if the employees are physically in the U.S., it is banned.
Third, it looks at who the 'real boss' is (capital/actual control).
This is the most severe, as long as your entity is controlled by individuals or companies in unsupported regions 'directly or indirectly holding a majority stake or control,' it will be completely banned!
In other words, if you want to register a shell company in Silicon Valley to access APIs, as long as the actual controller is found to be in China, it will be banned without exception.
Additionally, the new regulations clearly prohibit the use of consumer-grade subscriptions for forwarding requests, completely banning reselling and proxy services.
Even more so, this time Anthropic has added a third strike—30-day data retention, 'post-hoc calculation'.
Previously, account suspensions were based on instant IP addresses, but now they are using risk control to monitor 'behavior patterns'.
Now, the new system retains 30 days of security monitoring data.
Even if today's simulation is perfect, if your subsequent call timezone, language features, and multi-account concurrency patterns are inconsistent, the system may suspend your account at any time.
Why is Anthropic taking such decisive action at this critical moment?
Why is Anthropic, which is about to go public, taking such decisive action?
The truth is hidden in Anthropic's IPO filing (S-1).
The filing reveals that:Over the past nine months, Anthropic had 5% to 7% of its revenue from clients later deemed 'non-compliant'.
This means that a significant amount of computational power was wasted.
To present a clean IPO prospectus to Wall Street and block the leakage of core technology, Anthropic quietly took action starting in August and September.
However, November 12th was just the final moment.
Developers now face situations ranging from speed limits and warnings to direct disconnection and permanent suspension.
Now, it's urgent to back up and export all prompts and dialogues.
Then, activate Plan B and seek compliant alternatives.
Anthropic, which is about to go public, has truly made account suspension a business.
