A palantír is one of several indestructible crystal balls from J. R. R. Tolkien's epic-fantasy novel The Lord of the Rings. The word comes from Quenya palan 'far', and tir 'watch over'. The palantírs were used for communication and to see events in other parts of Arda, or in the past.
Ethics? Trump? The companies stock price has almost quadroupled over the past year. Since Trumps election it nearly doubled.
Everyone who knows the company knows that it serves to aid authoritarian regimes in oppressing its people. It is known that Palantir serves Israel in its genocide and oppression of the Palestinian people. The entire purpose of this company is to help oppress. Palantir is having ties with the ICE since at least 2014.
It is evil through and through and it is laughable to claim that Trump would be the reason why the company would have gone to far.
These types of headlines and articles are what keep Americans divided. Palantir is a terrible company regardless of their actions with the Trump administration. People need to stop being so partisan and see how the government is corrupt nearly as a whole.
Pretty sure Palantir got the “Keep Americans Divided” contract and not the non-profit radio stations that do Tiny Desk concerts and have to do fundraisers all the time to keep the lights on.

Yeah I saw the company name and was like "wait, aren't these the Israel AI people", turns out they're just universally morally bankrupt.

To be fair, that describes like 80% of tech companies nowadays
Still, only a few provide the AI used to automate the targeting and killing of Palestinians, the vast majority being civilians of course

It is in the name.
Maybe they hoped for someone more competently evil?
I loved that video where Mark Robert praised Anduril. Same energy.

Sorry but fuck everyone involved with Palantir. You worked for that shit? Get double fucked pls.
Remarkable how that happens, isn't it? The company was fine while they received a paycheque but the very next day they are despicable.
Google employees protest while still being employed these people didn't have the guts to do it while employed.
Did you see the CEO scoffing at the protests of a woman whose family were being murdered in Gaza. Complete sociopath.
Early Palantirians were naive if they thought this wasn't the outcome.
It's a data mining company founded by Peter Thiel, what did they think was going to happen?
How did the company named after the thing Sauron used to communicate with/spy on Saruman lose its moral compass?
They didn’t give a shit until their company was in the public spotlight, that’s all that matters
.
at least they didn't "slam" it - PLTR might not have survived

In fairness Palantir has always been an underhanded Corp. Even from before Trump.
