@kim_harding Yes, we shouldn't share this post. No, happy to help!

@kim_harding I don't think they care if people know as long as they can make an example out of them/ bleed them dry financially (eg a billion dollar corpo can afford to drag their case in court vs a random news outlet)

@kim_harding Boosted to my small group of like-minded computer weirdos. I only wish I had more reach, in this particular case.

@kim_harding Palantir is the spoiled child of siphoned taxpayer dollars.

@kim_harding There’s something sick about the US ”justice system”.
Lawsuits are used as threats to shut up.

@kim_harding

So you're saying that Palantir doesn't want us to read this story, which is freely available and only a 15-minute read?

Gotcha.

@kim_harding I’d been looking for an epithet to concisely describe Palantir to friends…
“a heavy-handed American entity with uncomfortably close ties to U.S. intelligence” just about fits the bill.

@kim_harding @condret
Why are they (Republik) labelling the CEO of a government contractor surveillance company as a libertarian just because he's "right-wing"?
I hate the corruption of that word.
