op7418 · x · 2026-10-13

Anthropic published an article on how it defends against model distillation, and @op7418 extracted practical tips for users wrongly banned as suspected distillers: don't ask Claude to reveal or export its chain of thought, keep account registration and payment channels clean (proxy IPs and resold accounts are key targets), and don't mix domestic models with Claude in the same agent environment. Biggest risk factors: account/payment channel itself and prompting tricks to extract reasoning traces.
