Anthropic clarifies after Claude watermark controversy over AI labeling
Anthropic has begun inserting hard-to-detect watermarks into outputs from some Claude models, raising concerns over copyright and privacy. The watermark can remain after copy-and-paste and may persist after edits, and Anthropic says it is meant to distinguish human and AI writing. Critics warn the company could act as sole arbiter, while developers question impacts on text quality and on lightly edited human writing. Anthropic says it will provide a free API and that the mark indicates processing, not authorship.

EU moves to remove Huawei, ZTE and other Chinese gear from networks; replacement costs could hit 40 billion euros
The European Union is pushing to remove Chinese telecoms equipment such as Huawei and ZTE from networks, and European operators could face replacement costs of up to 40 billion euros, an analysis said. A GSMA Intelligence report commissioned by seven major operators estimated higher costs than earlier European Commission figures because it includes transport networks and fixed broadband gear. It also forecast price rises and warned of delays to network upgrades and wider digital infrastructure investment gaps.
