It's a rare chance to save on the outdoor-coded Canadian company's understated and stylish performance clothing. Now that Amazon Prime Day is over, it's time to start gearing up for Fourth of July sales. Most large retailers pivoted their summer-sale timing to compete head-on with Amazon's accelerated schedule, but you can still snag great deals this July 4th, particularly in active and outdoorsy categories. REI has the hottest sale of the weekend as far as the WIRED Reviews team is concerned, but there are notable midsummer sales on other sites we shop, like Backcountry, Home Depot, and Lululemon . Also, make sure you don't sleep on Duer.

Plus: Former national security advisor John Bolton pleads guilty in classified-materials case, Microsoft helps take down major infostealer infrastructure, and more. A WIRED investigation this week offers insight into a predictive policing program in Bristol, England that has involved 23 separate models over more than a decade, intended to score the likelihood of specific individuals will perpetrate or be victims of different crimes. The investigation draws on data from public records requests and other reporting to reveal a messy law enforcement apparatus that has real implications for the community--but that most people in the area know nothing about. After the identities of members of Peter Thiel's private "Dialog" group were exposed last week, the organization claimed that a "criminal" hacker was behind the breach. But evidence shows that members' personal information--including that of a White House intelligence official and an active-duty special operations officer --was publicly accessible and likely exposed as the result of a Dialog website misconfiguration .

After weeks of negotiations, the White House permitted Anthropic to grant access to its most advanced AI model to a select group of US companies and government agencies. The US government has eased the restrictions it imposed on Anthropic's most advanced AI model, Claude Mythos 5, allowing the company to grant access to more than 100 US organizations, including large corporations and government agencies. In a letter sent to Anthropic's cofounder and chief compute officer Tom Brown obtained by WIRED, US Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick told the AI lab it would permit certain trusted partners to access Mythos because he had "determined that appropriate safeguards are in place." Semafor first reported the existence of the letter. "Anthropic has worked with the U.S. government to address risks associated with the Covered Models. These efforts have yielded significant progress," Lutnick wrote.

How People in China Keep Outsmarting Anthropic's Geolocation Restrictions As Anthropic tightens restrictions on access to Claude in China, users keep finding new workarounds, from proxy services to fake identities sourced on Telegram. Anthropic goes to great lengths to prevent people in China from using its AI models, but in practice, its safeguards have often failed. Over the past year, startups, researchers, and tech enthusiasts across the country have developed increasingly sophisticated workarounds to access Claude. Many of them consider it the world's most capable AI assistant, making the extra effort to obtain it worthwhile. In early June, Anthropic publicly released Fable 5, a safeguarded version of its most powerful AI model to date, Mythos.

Ninja Creami Swirl, Crispi, Slushi, and Cafe Luxe Pro are all on Prime Day deals that will soon go away. Life is all about the shots you take--and the ones you don't. Amazon Prime Day ends today. When it does, the Ninja deals will vanish. So this is likely the last time till autumn to get deals on the Ninja Creami Scoop and Swirl that turned one of my colleagues into an excitable fanatic for Froyo and soft-serve.

But in recent years, it's also become a great time for Prime Day streaming deals and discounts.

The asteroid will be visible for several nights from different parts of the world. We'll tell you when and where to look, and what equipment you'll need to spot it. The European Space Agency (ESA) confirmed that this weekend, asteroid (152637) 1997 NC1 will make its closest approach to Earth in 400 years. There's no risk it will hit Earth, but it will be visible through commercial telescopes and astronomical binoculars from various parts of the world. The closest approach will occur on Saturday, June 27, when the asteroid will pass 2.56 million kilometers (1.59 million miles) from Earth--a distance equivalent to 6.6 times the distance between Earth and the moon.

The Bose Headphones Deal You Shouldn't Sleep On This Prime Day Bose headphones are already one of our favorites for comfort, sound, and noise canceling.

The dependable MacBook Air, powerful MacBook Pro, and affordable MacBook Neo are all on sale for Prime Day, though none are significant discounts beyond the norm. With the recent announcement of Apple's price hikes on Thursday, however, these prices have a new context.
