"access to the world’s most important data problems"
I'm not sure how to put this, but I've used Palantir's products in a couple different warzones. I can't imagine they're not pointing those tools at everyday Americans. In fact I'm certain of it (just read FedBizOpps postings from the DHS and DoD). I'm sure most of the people working there have no idea, but I'm also sure there are some truly bad people working for that company. Man, we really need to regulate this a lot better.

One of the immediate resulting products of it is generation of Suspicious Activity Reports. Hoover (and Beria) would die of envy.
- jsprogrammer 11y agoYeah, I'm not sure how they can drop such an unqualified statement like that. Who says Palantir has the world's most important data problems? Could someone give an example? Why is access to these most important problems limited to Palantir, or otherwise not accessible to most people (as implied by this shutdown notice)?
