- AndrewKemendo 12y agoFor the record Palantir doesn't do any data collection or analysis on other people's data - which is what the NSA does (collection and analysis). Palantir simply makes overpriced software for groups to do complex network mapping and connection extraction from raw data - other companies then do analysis with on their own data sets with the software.
