Wow... See. I didn't even know it was this bad. You don't need much to silence these people that are supporting authoritarian collaborators.
I always just say Palantier is IBM 2.0

IBM of course has an problematic history.

Iunno, this seems pretty dystopian to me: https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2026/01/report-ice-using-palan...
