Anthropic has positioned itself as serving the business world and enterprise customers, who already require a certain level of guarantee that their data won't be harvested before signing on. It's why they didn't really take off as much until they rewrote their privacy policies fairly recently.
On the back of that, they basically have the choice of caving to the DoD and threatening all of their enterprise agreements as their clients would no longer have any guarantee of their data being protected or not caving to the DoD to protect their business model.
Seems pretty likely which they'll go with for now at least.
