Article 12
Extensive tracking infrastructure (Google Analytics GTM-P59JVDP, DoubleVerify, IAS PET, Ketch CMP) observable in page metadata. TCF and GPP consent signals present but implementation suggests permissive default data collection.
Terms of Service

No TOS accessible from provided content; cannot assess structural alignment.
Accessibility
+0.08
Article 25 Article 27
Skip-to-content link present (sr-only), semantic HTML structure evident, ARIA labels on navigation and ad regions. Mobile-responsive design. Positive accessibility signals.
Mission

TIME's editorial mission is journalism. No mission statement observable on-page; cannot evaluate domain-level mission alignment independently.
Editorial Code
+0.03
Article 19
No explicit editorial code visible. Standard journalistic framing (byline Billy Perrigo, dated 2026-02-24, factual headline) suggests professional journalism norms. Conservative modifier for structural consistency with journalism principles.
Ownership
—
Ownership not specified in provided content. TIME is a mainstream U.S. commercial news outlet; broader context suggests corporate ownership but no specific data on-domain.
Access Model
+0.02
Article 19 Article 27
Article metadata indicates content_tier='free'; no paywall evident on truncated page. Open access to journalism is a positive signal for information access rights.
Ad/Tracking
-0.06
Article 12
Multiple ad/tracking pixels preloaded (DoubleVerify pub.js, Bytes Media vs.js, IAS PET). Leaderboard ad container visible. Heavy third-party tracking infrastructure reduces privacy protections.
The AI startup has refused to remove safeguards that would prevent its technology from being used to target weapons autonomously and conduct U.S. domestic surveillance.
Pentagon officials have argued the government should only be required to comply with U.S. law. During the meeting, Hegseth delivered an ultimatum to Anthropic: get on board or the government would take drastic action, people familiar with the matter said.
What an interesting week to drop the safety pledge.
This is how all of these companies work. They’ll follow some ethical code or register as a PBC until that undermined profits.
These companies are clearly aiming at cheapening the value of white collar labor. Ask yourself: will they steward us into that era ethically? Or will they race to transfer wealth from American workers to their respective shareholders?
This is terrible. It’s caving in to the Trump administration threatening to ban Anthropic from government contracts. It really cements how authoritarian this administration is and how dangerous they can be.
This headline unfortunately offers more smoke than light. This article has nothing to do with the current tête-à-tête with the Pentagon. It is discussing one specific change to Anthropic's "Responsible Scaling Policy" that the company publicly released today as version "3.0".
Either be a company in capitalist USA, or keep being your safety queen. You just can’t be both.
The intention to start these pledge and conflict with DOW might be sincere, but I don’t expect it to last long, especially the company is going public very soon.
I consider this a bigger deal than the Pentagon thing.
