replyGreat article, it has a list of times it's been used to compel cooperation.
Ok. So what's the emergency prompting them to take control of Anthropic?

That link is specifically discussing actions the government takes in war. Like, a real, ongoing, war where it's accepted extraordinary actions may be necessary that conflict with peacetime rights to private property (it was written during World War 2).
replyWhich case is that?
