There’s something very wrong with that Karp creature. But hey, Palantir is at the forefront of the surveillance state, so I’m sure you’ve invested wisely.
But Palantir is only part of the surveillance state if you get your news from Jimmy Dore and conspiracy theorists.
If you think Palantir is secretly collecting data on people, that’s simply false. Palantir doesn’t harvest data, doesn’t own data, and can’t unilaterally access anyone’s information. It’s a software platform that organizations use to analyze data they already legally collect.
If you think the government’s data-collection policies are too broad, that’s a debate worth having—but that’s about lawmakers and agencies, not Palantir. Blaming the tool instead of the legal framework confuses the issue.
