Anthropic can serve its models within the security standards required to handle classified data. The other labs do not yet claim to have this capability.
Even if they do, I assume the other labs would prefer to avoid drawing the ire of the administration, the public, or their employees by choosing a side publicly.
Now he has been fired. The included Daily Show blurb consisted of him saying he'd probably be fired.
The author of this article appears to be unaware that the major record companies have a significant stake in Spotify[1]. Of course they're not going to support any attempts to undercut the market.

It's not legal to spy on citizens. Assuming the NSA (and likely not the FBI) held illegally seized data, it still wouldn't be admissible as evidence in a trial.
The institute and the open letter are about maximizing the societal benefits of AI by funding research that provides net positives to humanity. The goal isn't to prevent the development of potentially harmful technologies.
I believe they intend to fund positive research so that researchers do not resort to projects that do not provide net good, for example, in fields like weaponry.
Not that safely developing hyperintelligent AI isn't an interesting topic. But I don't think AI research is anywhere close to that stage, considering that programmers largely still have to hard-code any actions that an agent can perform.
I can say that recently LinkedIn has asked me to reauthenticate on multiple occasions in the same session. I've had the same for Google but I have not tried recently. I'm aware that Twitter and Facebook allow you to do so, but I propose that none of the above give scopes without authentication that allow you to perform actions that charge an account.
That said, I agree that some of the giants are fine with using cookies for auth in OAuth2. And while that indicates that this is a possible use case, OAuth2 is capable of being used in many ways and Digital Ocean's usage still doesn't make much sense.
While I believe that allowing CSRF is terrible practice, as a user of Doorkeeper, I think the problem here is Digital Ocean's atypical usage of OAuth2. When you request an access token for a resource owner in OAuth2, you are supposed _actually authenticate_ the owner. According to the OAuth2 spec[1], username and password are REQUIRED fields. Allowing clients to generate tokens based off of cookies is reckless.
Useful CSRF exploits depend on the server to trust session data to authenticate client actions. OAuth2 is designed for allowing external (third-party) applications to communicate with you. Cross-site requests are an expectation in OAuth2. If you ignore the spec and skip proper authentication, you're in a bad spot anyway.

To be fair, there is global suspicion and scorn for Chinese manufacturing, including from Chinese people themselves.
Giving them fake information would be illegal and probably be breaching their ToS.
Your _personal_ ethics can easily get you _fired_.
Capital doesn't grow on trees.
It couldn't handle files with spaces, plus the link it gives initiates a download for the file instead allowing you to view it in the browser. Considering most of the time I want to quickly upload a file in this manner the file is a screenshot, this is basically useless for me.
Hold down shift.
