  And this new thread was just demoted from the front page despite a lot of activity and upvotes in a short time.

    Anything critical of Palantir or mass surveillance in general tends to get auto flagged / downvoted very quickly. It's a bit ironic for a site calling itself Hacker News, but it's also very fitting and not surprising that a tech site these days is being influenced so heavily by bots/llms.

      The only reason I shared that I posted this earlier is in part that I found it incredibly odd it didn’t get traction (it’s a big deal!). Seeing now that this post may be limited, my tin foil hat gets placed back on. It’s not like Palantir is a fan of YC, they literally sued them…
