How China’s Token Resellers Create an Anthropic Gray Market
According to reporting by The Information, an active gray market of token resellers in Beijing is providing Chinese customers with unauthorized access to Anthropic's Claude and other U.S. artificial intelligence models. Although Anthropic restricts its services in China citing national security concerns, local vendors are circumventing geographic controls to satisfy substantial domestic demand. Anthropic has previously raised concerns regarding Chinese laboratories extracting capabilities from its models.
