I have no idea why anybody is talking about "jailbreaks."

The government made it clear what was going to happen to a private company not following the government's orders:

> Trump said on his Truth Social platform: “The Leftwing nut jobs at Anthropic have made a DISASTROUS MISTAKE trying to STRONG-ARM the [Pentagon], and force them to obey their Terms of Service instead of our Constitution.” [0]

> There will be a Six Month phase out period for Agencies like the Department of War who are using Anthropic’s products, at various levels. Anthropic better get their act together, and be helpful during this phase out period, or I will use the Full Power of the Presidency to make them comply, with major civil and criminal consequences to follow. [1]

Plus OpenAI fell in line, and OpenAI and Anthropic have competing IPOs coming up... it doesn't take a rocket surgeon to understand what is happening here.
