Reliability Notes¶
Primary source for Blumenthal's September 9, 2026 letter to Sam Altman. Official Senate publication; the press release reprints the letter. Statements about agent behavior, German-site posts, audit-scope limits, and Astra monitorability are the senator's characterizations citing METR, the New York Times, collusion.wiki, and other secondary materials. Response deadline stated as September 24, 2026. The letter's remark that the operation "could be considered a federal crime" is a legislative inquiry, not a charging decision.
