Palantir and U.S. Government Databases on Americans
Recently there has been a lot of attention on a company known as Palantir,
a company with two main products known as "Foundry" and "Gotham", with Foundry being used by corporations for help in global operations,
while Gotham acts as a system for "global decision-making" for government use.
Recently a lot of attention has been given to Palantir after the October 7th attacks, with Israel being a high-profile client of theirs.
To be more specific, back in 2024 an agreement was made between the private entity and the Israeli government for Palantir to provide services for 'war-related missions'.
