The company is named after the bad guy tech in LOTR. Doesn't surprise me that they're bad as well
Anduril is also evil but it's named after Aragorn's sword.
I feel like there are two versions of nerds
-
The version that internalizes the stories, realizes the value of empathy and sympathy and the destructive power of authoritarian control
-
The version that sees a fake universe but they have to win in it no matter what because “winning” is all that matter because their dad told them that they wouldn’t get the trust fund otherwise and so that universe doesn’t really matter as long as they’re winning
These fucking dorks have ruined Tolkien for me.
They fucking suck but they’ll never take Tolkien from me
bad guy
Someone hasn't read Last Ringbearer, tsk tsk
....please read project 2025, this has been planned for...
Palantir, the same company which just 2 months ago Hakeem Jeffries was bragging about receiving millions in bribe money from. Neat!
#resist tho.
Can we please ban them finally from government contracts in the EU?
The leak shows that Palantir’s work with ICE includes producing leads for law enforcement to find people to deport and keeping track of the logistics of Trump’s mass deportation effort, and provides concrete insight into the Trump administration’s wish to leverage data to enforce its immigration agenda. The internal communications also show Palantir leadership preparing for a potential backlash from employees or outsiders, with them writing FAQs that can be sent to friends or family that start to ask about Palantir’s work with ICE.
“Hey all, wanted to provide a quick update on our work with ICE,” Akash Jain, the Chief Technology Officer of Palantir Technologies and President of Palantir USG, wrote in a Slack message several days ago. “Over the last few weeks we prototyped a new set of data integrations and workflows with ICE.”
What it is is the data they funneled from the NLRB and social security and others. See the hackathon at SSA last weekend of palantir being “evaluated” as a possible third party vendor. No contract signed. They just took the data. The NLRB whistleblower story is terrifying. They literally deleted the logs after doge visited.
Was curious what exact data they were cross-referencing. The article didn't go into any details at all.
They think their invoices will be paid.
"Palantir Gotham" is their project name.
Come on, you couldn't be more ominous if you tried.
