„Digitale Souveränität“ – klingt gut, funktioniert aber nicht. Also lieber Daten an #Palantir, Thiel und Trump. Wer braucht schon Grundrechte, wenn man ein paar tolle Analysen kriegt?

The CTO of Palantir, the company being tasked with making a master database of intelligence files on all US citizens, is joining the army-ish.
So are other tech execs. This feels…really bad.

now that we have all collectively seen and acknowledged palantir fuel the efforts of the fascist US regime,
can we also collectively get rid of people who think even criticizing palantir is worthy of exclusion?
(yes, i'm looking at you, guy who was proud to shake dtolnay's hand and told us all about it. you're a part of the problem! you know who you are)

The New York Times reports that President Trump has enlisted the firm Palantir, founded by far-right billionaire Peter Thiel,
to carry out his March executive order
instructing government agencies to share data with each other.
The order has increased fears that the government is putting together a database to wield surveillance powers over the American public.

The company has received more than $113 million in federal government spending since Trump took office, including additional funds from existing contracts as well as new contracts with the Department …

A centralized intelligence database on all Americans is not inherently legal.
It likely breaks the Privacy Act of 1974, the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA), the 1st, 4th and 5th Amendments.
