Peter Thiel’s Palantir: A Grave Threat to Democracy and Global Freedom
Palantir Technologies, a company founded by Peter Thiel, is at the intersection of AI assets, the US military, data collection for the Trump regime, and elements of Silicon Valley pushing for a shift away from democracy. Palantir uses AI to analyze personal data, and it was chosen to compile a super-database of information from various government agencies, potentially to advance political agendas. This move raises concerns, as former employees and some Republicans worry about the potential for misuse. Behind Palantir’s selection are figures like Elon Musk, who has worked closely with Thiel, who have contributed vast sums of money to political causes that appear to devalue democracy.
