EVENT DOSSIER
American artificial intelligence company Anthropic is facing a new class action lawsuit, accusing it of false advertising and misleading paying users regarding its Max subscription tier. Lawyers Monica Vaca and Kati Daffan represent a group of Claude subscribers, claiming that Anthropic deceitfully set service limitations in advertisements, resulting in users not receiving the maximum benefits they deserve for their payments. Although Anthropic emphasizes that paying users are crucial to its business and prioritizes protecting their rights (including by removing other popular apps like OpenClaw), some customers believe the company has failed to keep its promises. This lawsuit was initiated by former officials of the Federal Trade Commission, aiming to hold AI companies legally accountable.
