EXTRACT
Palantir is a unicorn wearing an invisibility saddle, tack, and saddle blanket. That’s okay with me. My observation is that Palantir has technology which is intended to prevent untoward acts. Are these untoward acts being prevented? I will let you answer that question.
Phi Beta Iota: Palantir now has enough money to actually build something useful, but the chances of that happening are next to zero. This is a financial play. The US Government — and the US secret intelligence world particularly — have no interest in intelligence with integrity — the integration of holistic analytics, true cost economics, sources in 183 languages and all mediums, etcetera. From where we sit, Palantir is the greatest powerpoint scam ever foisted on any client anywhere. The creator of the powerpoint brief, not the pimply design team without a clue about the craft of intelligence, is the heart and soul of Palantir.
