Shame on Palantir and Thiel for being a part of this; it's still pretty disgusting to me the sheer lack of moral responsibility at play here.

1. Insinuating that the tools will ever predict crime or terrorism.

2. Allowing, fostering, and building tools of mass surveillance without oversight in secret for no reason other than to surveil.

3. Aiding in the human rights abuses through enabling ICE and other organizations which fuel America's concentration camps.

Though this is pretty unsurprising considering he literally wants to consume the blood of the young: https://www.vanityfair.com/news/2016/08/peter-thiel-wants-to... supporting ICE, and trump, is one helluva way to make sure you have a steady supply of it on your hands.
