On May 6, 2024, the US Department of State's Bureau of Cyberspace and Digital Policy (the "Bureau") released its International Cyberspace and Digital Policy Strategy. The stated goal of the strategy is to build broad digital solidarity with other countries and actors that are, as Secretary of State Blinken stated, "committed to developing and deploying technology that is open, safe, and secure, that promotes inclusive growth, that fosters resilient and democratic societies, and that empowers all people." The Department of State developed this strategy in coordination with other federal agencies. In its announcement, the Bureau explains that this strategy "sets out a path for the United States to mobilize all resources at its disposal to implement an affirmative and proactive vision through which building digital solidarity connects people and information like never before, fostering a more inclusive, secure, prosperous, and equitable world."

D.C. Circuit Rules Pentagon Can Exclude Anthropic From Supply Chain
