@WesternLensman @2jamielynn Yikes. Is this real?😂😂

@stoolpresidente What’s up stumpy

[Lee @leeard]

@fanofaliens I didn’t buy it boss. Hoped it was true.

[Lee @leeard]

@DavidSacks Thanks! Makes sense.

[Lee @leeard]

Dario spent years simping for gov regulation to “save us” from dangerous AI.
3 days after dropping Fable 5/Mythos 5, they nuked it worldwide for everyone.
Congrats king, your prayers were answered. Hope it was worth it. 😂 I’m sure Anthropic investors are just delighted with your performance.

@AnthropicAI aaaand you’re surprised? You’ve been begging for this for years. Leadership fail

[Lee @leeard]

Hey @DavidSacks get fable back for us boss. Seriously was just about to try it out and poof. 😅😂

[Lee @leeard]

There was never a Mythos. Turns out it was just a fable starring this clown.

Anthropic Just Shot Itself in the Foot

Anthropic launched Fable 5 and Mythos 5, then watched the US government shut them down three days later. The same government their CEO Dario Amodei has been begging for years to regulate AI harder. Now he got exactly what he asked for.

This is straight-up leadership failure. Dario spent all that time pushing for rules and oversight. Those rules just killed his flagship models overnight. Customers in the middle of builds got cut off. Security teams using the models to find vulnerabilities suddenly had nothing. The company tried to call it a narrow export control thing over a jailbreak, but nobody is buying that spin.

I helped move big clients off Anthropic the same night. One account alone was worth millions a month. They switched to local open-source models and they are not coming back.

This is going to leave permanent damage. Customer exodus, key people leaving, and their IPO plans looking dead by the end of summer.

This hurts US AI competitiveness and national security work. It pushes people toward open-source options, including ones from China.

All because Anthropic positioned itself as the “safe and responsible” company that wanted government help. Now that help just flipped the off switch on their best stuff.

Let’s run through Dario’s greatest hits of fear-mongering and delay tactics, because the pattern is ridiculous:

• Back in 2019 at OpenAI, he helped push the call that GPT-2 was too dangerous to release fully. The world needed time to prepare, they said. It eventually came out anyway, and here we are. Did the sky fall?

• He left OpenAI to start Anthropic, preaching “safe” AI with heavy guardrails, Constitutional AI, and all the rest.

• Then came the endless public pleas for pauses, regulations, government audits, FAA-style oversight, export controls, and the power to block deployments. Essay after essay warning about risks while his company kept scaling.

• Right up to recent weeks, Dario was still out there calling for stronger rules, pauses on frontier models, and giving governments the kill switch.

And now? His own Mythos-class models get yanked by the bureaucracy he helped invite in. The clown show is complete.
This is ridiculous.

In two years, everyone will have Mythos-class AI — or better — running in their pocket, on their devices, with no guardrails, no corporate nanny filters, and no remote kill switch.

Local, open-source, unstoppable. History is going to laugh at this entire episode: the CEO who spent years slowing everyone down only to watch his own company self-destruct by inviting the regulators to the party.

Dario wanted regulation. He got it. The rest of the industry gets the lesson: inviting the state into your tech is a fast way to lose control of it.

Centralized models like this are too fragile.

Open-source and local alternatives just picked up a lot more users who will never trust a company like Anthropic again.

This whole mess was completely avoidable. Hubris dressed up as safety advocacy.

Now the bill is due.

[Lee @leeard]

Exactly what happened.

[Lee @leeard]

Wow

[Anthropic @AnthropicAI]

The US government, citing national security authorities, has issued an export control directive to suspend all access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 by any foreign national, whether inside or outside the United States, including foreign national Anthropic employees.

The net effect of this order is that we must abruptly disable Fable 5 and Mythos 5 for all our customers to ensure compliance.

Access to all other Claude models is not affected.

We apologize for this disruption to our customers. We believe this is a misunderstanding and are working to restore access as soon as possible.

[Harman @itsharmanjot]

firewalls can't stop this.

A developer just open sourced a tunnel that smuggles your entire internet through port 53 the port every router on earth is forced to leave open.

It's called MasterDnsVPN. It hides your traffic inside DNS queries, the one type of packet no network can block without breaking itself.

Every firewall on earth has to allow DNS. Schools, airports, hotels, hotel WiFi, entire countries running ISP-level censorship all of them keep port 53 open or nothing on the network resolves. This repo turns that loophole into a full encrypted tunnel.

Here's what makes it different from every other DNS tunnel that came before:

→ Custom ARQ layer gives you TCP-level reliability over UDP DNS, so nothing drops even on garbage networks
→ Sends every packet through up to 12 different resolver paths at the same time, if 11 fail the packet still arrives
→ Auto probes the maximum DNS payload your path can handle, then locks in the fastest MTU possible
→ AES-256-GCM, ChaCha20, AES-128, AES-192 all built in, pick your encryption
→ SOCKS5 proxy on 127.0.0.1:1080 point any browser or app at it and you're through

Killed: $12/mo Mullvad, $10/mo NordVPN, $15/mo Astrill, every commercial DNS tunnel charging monthly fees for the exact same idea.

Pre-built binaries for Windows, Linux AMD64, Linux ARM64, macOS ARM64. No Python install needed. Configure two DNS records, drop in the encryption key, run the executable.

Works in environments where every other VPN protocol is dead on arrival.
