  • The Freedom of the Press Foundation and The Intercept filed suit on August 12 in the Southern District of New York, seeking to end Truth API and bar exclusive postings of official government information on Truth Social.

  • The service launched in early August charges Wall Street firms up to $100,000 a month for access milliseconds ahead of others to Trump's posts about war, tariffs and other policy issues.

  • The plaintiffs allege that the offering violates the First Amendment by denying equal access to the president's comments and the Fifth Amendment by imposing unreasonable conditions on government benefits.

  • Trump Media & Technology said rapid information access is common in the industry and accused the plaintiffs of trying to silence the president.
  • A president selling priority access to news he himself generates for the benefit of a private company he controls is so blatantly corrupt and unconstitutional that it would have been hard to even fathom just a few years ago,
    — Seth Stern, chief of advocacy at the Freedom of the Press Foundation, a plaintiff in the case along with The Intercept

Key FactsAnthropic Unveils Secure AI Model Claude Fable 5
Jun 10, 2026 · Reading time: ~45 sec.
Summary created with AI assistance · Source: financialexpress.com
  • Anthropic launched Claude Fable 5, an AI model fortified with strong safeguards to prevent misuse in cybersecurity and other sensitive fields.

  • The system restricts responses in high-risk areas to reduce the likelihood of exploitation by hackers, limiting some legitimate security uses.

  • Benchmark evaluations show Fable 5 surpasses the previous Claude Opus 4.8 model by 5% in overall performance.

  • This new model commands roughly double the price per million tokens compared to Opus 4.8, reflecting increased operational costs.
  • That is the core of why we have been able to release Fable.
