You're speaking of a company named after the device that Sauron used to control the Middle Earth equivalent of the Internet. A user with sufficient will power could decide what the palantirs would show (and hide) to other users. The "Database Torturer" would inspire more trust.
- paisawalla 5y agoThis is a bad critique for two reasons: 1. Linking the name of a company to people and places that don't exist doesn't demonstrate anything. 2. You don't even know enough to know that the Palantiri were originally created and used by the elves, not Sauron.

- paisawalla 5y agoSorry to have assumed ignorance on your part, but you see then, it's totally possible that the company name refers to their original positive nature.
