You guys are fucking morons letting these techfascists anywhere near your healthcare system.
We have lost control of our governance completely long ago. We let corporations become people while we became a product.
Best comment on Lemmy that I’ve seen in months. Epic.
Our healthcare system has been run by the conservative party for the last decade. So your comment checks out
Yes I was surprised to find myself checking the box for this at the referendum. Get your head out your ass.
Brexiteer surprised everything goes to shit when the UK government is given more control lmao
Wrong on every count. How thick of you.
Somebody keeps fucking electing Tories over there, but you realize I wasn’t talking about you in particular, right?
As opposed to Labour who had Palantir organizing events at their party conference?
I think you need to get your particulars in check.
They’ve certainly “taken back control” from those pesky EU privacy regulations.
Seems odd to describe Peter Thiel as a “libertarian” in an article about his creepy panopticon spy firm getting yet another government contract.
Hes a monarchist libertarian by his own admission. He wants small city-states with kings with the only option to change laws being leaving, i.e whoever owns the gold, makes the rules.
A coincidentally ideal situation for a billionare.
Whike in colledge, he explicitly stated that letting women vote is a mistake. Hes just expanded that idiocy to the next level in his mega/maga wealth.
Ok but Palantir is a top tier name for a spy company
Theil is a grade A weirdo that 100% picked the name on purpose because of the LoTR reference.
The lotr franchise is far too good for a shithead like him, but it’s no suprise he likes to larp in the words of a better man.
he likes to larp in the words of a better man
That’s such a great description of this kind of tech-bro behaviour.
My thought exactly, that name is so fucking good
Companies own our government and run it, what do you expect. Of course they’re going to get into bed with deeply evil organisations.
Our government is run by evil companies via evil politicians.
This was one of the stocks Wallstreet bets had their nuts in wouldn’t be surprised if they are holding.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
The NHS has caused controversy by handing the US spy technology company Palantir a £330m contract to create a new data platform, triggering fears about the privacy of patients’ medical details.
The move immediately prompted concerns about the security and privacy of patient medical records and the suitability of Palantir to be given access to and oversight of such sensitive material.
NHS England has given Palantir and its partner Accenture a five-year contract to set up and operate the “federated data platform” (FDP).
Palantir is known for working closely with intelligence agencies and military organisations around the world, such as the CIA and the Ministry of Defence.
Thiel, a libertarian, told an Oxford Union debate in January that the NHS makes people sick and should be privatised, and that Britons’ attachment to it showed they were exhibiting “Stockholm syndrome”.
But he also warned that the NHS’s unhappy previous history of trying to bring its huge stores of data together could mean it struggles to convince the public of the project’s potential benefits.
The original article contains 429 words, the summary contains 172 words. Saved 60%. I’m a bot and I’m open source!

Enough with privatizing stuff and billionaires owning things that are supposed to be public, look at the complete mess that is US healthcare and public transport in developing nations.
It’s almost like these kinds of people have forgotten guillotines exist
What could go wrong!
In the US I trust a corporation as much as I do the government. They’re all greedy scammers.
