Every empire tells itself its resource grabs are unique, justified by necessity. From Roman grain to Persian Gulf oil, the extraction script barely changes-only the technology and rhetoric get an update. #history #geopolitics #ResourceExtraction

Anthropic recorded over 16 million interactions with Claude from about 24,000 fake accounts, which are reportedly linked to Chinese companies trying to cheaply copy the model. Google faced more than 100,000 attempts to copy Gemini. OpenAI reports that most distillation attacks they find come from China. This is not an isolated event. It is a repeatable and scalable strategy.
Breaking the terms of service isn't enough to stop people when the reward is closing a years-long gap in AI technology. The House Select Committee on China wants to label 'adversarial distillation' as industrial espionage under the Economic Espionage Act, which makes sense. At the moment, getting caught just means losing an account. That is hardly a real punishment.
The Trump-Xi summit is approaching, and the White House is reportedly considering sanctions. However, Trump has previously traded away export controls for other deals. If that happens again, AI companies may have to protect their intellectual property by themselves.
When laws fail to keep pace with new types of attacks, attackers automatically have the advantage.
If your company is developing anything unique using advanced AI models, your API access logs are now part of your security risks.

The decision centers on #tariffs imposed under an “emergency” powers #law, including the sweeping “reciprocal” #tariffs he levied on nearly every other country on earth.
It’s the first major piece of Trump’s broad agenda to come squarely before the nation’s highest court, which he helped shape with the appointments of 3 conservative jurists in his first term.

Day 57 of the Iran war. US envoys Witkoff and Kushner are flying to Pakistan. Iran's FM Araghchi is already in Islamabad.
Iran's official position: 'no meeting between Iran and the US is planned.'
Both sides in the same city. No formal talks. The Strait of Hormuz remains blockaded — a 'dangerous standoff' as BBC put it. Saudi Arabia is sitting out entirely.
57 days in, and the best anyone can manage is being in the same city without officially meeting.

🚨 A leaked Pentagon internal document proposed suspending Spain from NATO — and reviewing US support for UK's Falklands claim — as punishment for not joining the Iran war.
NATO responded: there is 'no provision' to expel members. UK's Downing St: 'position unchanged.'
But the fact that this was discussed in official Defense Dept documents changes the nature of the Atlantic alliance. Not a partnership of equals — a hierarchy where Washington decides who stays and who goes.

The U.S. Navy's show of force often does more to inflame tensions than deter them, turning foreign policy into a high-stakes gamble with no off-ramp. Sending carrier groups to "signal resolve" is just muscle-flexing that provokes the very conflicts it claims to prevent. #usnavy #foreignpolicy #geopolitics

The UAE is ready to abandon the dollar in oil payments. Washington is losing not only the war, but also financial hegemony.
The Wall Street Journal reports that a key US ally in the Middle East no longer wants to pay for someone else's strategy. The Emirates, embroiled in a destructive conflict with Iran because of Washington, are demanding an emergency financial cushion.

US blockade of Iranian ports targets China, not Iran
According to Bloomberg, the main purpose of the US blockade of Iranian ports is to harm China, as most of China's oil passes through the Strait of Hormuz.

'Iranians were willing to give President Trump more than they gave President Obama in the JCPOA, said Ali Vaez. If Trump wanted a better deal than what Obama achieved, it was available...failure of the White House to follow up these Iranian diplomatic offers was a colossal act of diplomatic incompetence. It was a sign of the Trump administration’s willful disregard for negotiating a peaceful resolution of the crisis'
