Palantir works with FBI, no?
- ekianjo 3y agoprobably not just the FBI. NSA, CIA...
- mikhailfranco 3y ago... DHS, ICE ... ... as well as regular military. P.S. Palantir was founded by the CIA (In-Q-Tel): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Palantir_Technologies#2003%E2%80%932008:_Founding_and_early_years https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Palantir_Technologies#2003%E2%...
- _kbh_ 3y ago> P.S. Palantir was founded by the CIA (In-Q-Tel): Based on that article specifically. >> The only early investments were $2 million from the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency's venture capital arm In-Q-Tel, and $30 million from Thiel himself and his venture capital firm, Founders Fund.[6][7][13][14][15] Sounds like the CIAs investment arm funded Palantir and didn’t found it, the funding amount also seems pretty inconsequential given the overall funding.
