Any company using a huge $$ war chest to shower themselves in regulation, is likely trying to usurp market powers from the public -via congressional bribes- to themselves.
Anthropic officially funds lobbyists in excess than other huge companies like Microsoft or Amazon. Its latest $20M outlay [1] alone is more that the spend of either company. Their lobbying spend combined is now on par with companies like META, which have tons of regulatory battle fronts (unlike Anthropic)
