Are there any protections from industrial espionage when using Anthropic, Cursor, Gemini, or OpenAI?

There are legal protections, and those companies have more to lose by breaking those laws than following them. Same probably not true for Chinese companies.

Legal protection, only if you're a billionaire and US citizen, for everyone else there is no protection.

Does US actually follow laws? They literally kidnapped head of another state and bombed another state and you are expecting legal protection from them?

You don't have to be a US citizen or live in the US to file a lawsuit against an American company in the US court system. Federal courts explicitly allow it under the "alienate jurisdiction" clause.
