Palantir exec defends company's immigration surveillance work

- k310 1y agoThe government’s defense and cyber-defense are highly focused on attacking immigration and DEI, firing senior and expert employees, practically begging for a crippling attack on the entire U.S. internet, water and power plants and top-level government communications. (Starlink and signalgate, anyone?) Military defense is similarly compromised by purges and a focus on eradicating DEI. This greatly increases the chance of a major disaster, which would have the consequence of a declaration of martial law, something that nobody wants. Except one. I advocate refocusing cyber and military defense on real established threats instead of imaginary ones, and the same goes for the hallucination called “trade imbalance”

If you're a first-rate programmer, there are a huge number of other places you can go work rather than at the company building the infrastructure of the police state." https://x.com/paulg/status/1913338841068404903 https://x.com/paulg/status/1913338841068404903
