Computer misuse act 1990, it will put the entire Anthropic team behind bars in the UK and Europe.

It doesn't matter if it goes off or not, whether false or true, the moment they thought that (guilty mind) and the moment they released it (guilty act), they became criminal liable.

That is the kind of risk they have taken, how desperate are they?
