You still don't get what palantir does. they're not necessarily mining online activities of people. although they do that almost certainly. but it's things like where you life, your movements, your associations, work place, etc.. that may seem harmless but they go layers and layers deeper to presume things. For example if someone you know has a friend who is a gang member, they might associate you without your knowledge with that person. the physical stuff is hard to beat by anyone. lots of cameras, radio sensors (wifi/bt), payment transactions, ISP data,etc.. Even if they worked like you think they do, simply downloading tails, or using a VPN alone will harm you in person much more than you think. You might be driving in peace, a cop would put in your license plate and you'd be flagged from heavy vpn usage. if they can't get enough additional information on you to dismiss you as harmless, that will do you more harm than good. No facebook,reddit,etc.. then that means you're up to no good. There is not tech solution for this, it is a human problem, the problem is people. There is an old adage in hacking circles "physical compromise is total compromise", these people have physical power and control over you. Ever heard of the $5 wrench method of defeating cryptography? Like you, many are wasting efforts in trying to find technical solutions, instead of communicating the impact of how tech is being abused to decision makers and the public.
