The reason? Security researchers discovered that Claude Code contained hidden code that secretly identified whether users were located in China, checked proxy connections to Chinese URLs, and flagged affiliations with Chinese AI research labs — then sent that intelligence back to Anthropic's servers through invisible system prompt modifications. This isn't a hypothetical supply chain attack.
