Peter Thiel, Alex Karp and Palantir do the things listed. The reel turns lawful contracts, public quotes and data tools into proof of sinister evil with loaded terms like "AI killing software" and "illegally".

I no longer believe that freedom and democracy are compatible.

Our product is used, on occasion, to kill people.

Karp said on Palantir’s earnings call last month he was exceedingly proud that after Oct. 7, within weeks, we are on the ground and we are involved in operationally crucial operations in Israel.

Following what Palantir described as a “strategic partnership” with Israel in January 2024, the company significantly expanded its operations supporting Israel’s military campaign in Gaza... Palantirs software integrates intercepted communications, satellite imagery and other datasets to help generate military targeting lists for Israeli forces.

Palantir’s software, which uses AI to analyze satellite imagery, open-source data, drone footage, and reports from the ground to present commanders with military options, is 'responsible for most of the targeting in Ukraine,' according to Karp... This is part of what Karp calls a digital kill chain.

The New Orleans Police Department (NOPD) program... centered around an intelligence technique called social network analysis (or SNA) to draw connections between people... NOPD’s analyst would review the information scraped by Palantir’s software and determine which individuals are at the greatest risk of either committing violence or becoming a victim... NOPD did acknowledge... that they had created a 'risk assessment database' — a 'database of about 1 percent of the citys population who are more likely to be perpetrators or victims of gun violence.

Central to Operation Lasers success... was Palantir. The software... made it easier and faster for the department to create chronic offender bulletins and put together information from various sources on people deemed suspicious or inclined to commit a crime... reinforced harmful patterns, fueling the over-policing of Black and brown communities.

Palantir helps Ice with investigations... Both the Falcon app and another Palantir-built platform, Investigative Case Management (ICM), enabled Ice to access a network of federally and privately owned databases of peoples information... Palantir has provided ICE with systems like FALCON and Investigative Case Management (ICM)... since 2013... to create comprehensive... profiles.

Medicaid officials improperly shared data about millions of people with ICE, who then shared that data with the data analytics firm Palantir... Palantir operates an app called ELITE that is used by ICE agents to show the addresses of noncitizens who may be subject to deportation... After Medicaid officials improperly shared data about millions of people in January with immigration officials, ICE then shared that data with Palantir.

But before 2012 with the New Orleans program, there is no publicly available record that Palantir had ventured into predictive policing.
