Why is the #NHS contracting with #Palantir, a controversial US business whose founder, Peter #Thiel, is a buddy of #Trump & which undertakes “federal work, which includes building battlefield software, migrant surveillance systems and ‘predictive policing’ [#MinorityReport-style] tools to identify potential perpetrators and victims of crime.”

A company owned by a #fascist billionaire American is getting #NHS contracts in #England- and there are questions about the tendering process

@slothrop It sounds very immature of Grimes, I'd say. If you have to ASK your partner such a question, what have you been up to before in that relationship? I can't imagine being together with a transphobe/racist/mysogynist person more than a few minutes... all of the above fits #spacekaren, #zuckerberg and #thiel. So I wouldn't. :-)
Sidenote: She
left Musk for #ChelseaManning ... maybe that released/sparked special emotions.

Peter Thiel ist weder der reichste noch der bekannteste Silicon-Valley-Milliardär, aber sicherlich der gefährlichste. Dieses knapp 15-minütige Filmchen des @ZDF stellt ihn vor: https://www.zdf.de/dokumentation/zdfinfo-doku/wer-ist-peter-thiel-radikale-politik-mit-tech-milliarden-100.html

Chef der #Paypal-Mafia, erster #Facebook-Investor, #Palantir-Mitbegründer, #Trump-Spender … viele wissen das.

Da es kein eingekauftes Filmchen ist, hätte ich erwartet, dass ein Bezug zur EU oder D hergestellt wird. Wer weiß schon, dass Palantir dank Hessen-Innenminister Peter Beuth durch #HessenData Zugriff auf interne Polizeidatenbanken hat?
https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Palantir_Technologies#Hessen-Data

Das steht in der Wikipedia, weil es dafür 2019 einen der deutschen #BigBrotherAwards gab – es hätte sich also leicht recherchieren lassen: https://bigbrotherawards.de/2019/peter-beuth

Erst im Februar 2023 stellte das #BVerfG fest, dass dieser Einsatz der Palantir-Software #Gotham in #Hessen verfassungswidrig ist: https://www.hessenschau.de/politik/warum-die-polizei-software-hessendata-von-palantir-so-problematisch-ist-v2,urteil-bundesverfassungsgericht-hessendata-100.html

Incredible thread on the shared history of #Elon #Musk and Peter #Thiel together at #Paypal, his obsession with #X as well as his dream of a "giant financial nexus" app. May #twitter rest in peace.

Why settle with #GoldenPassports when you can have #GoldenCities?

The (long) cautionary tale of the island of #Roatan, where #libertarians & #investors set up their quasi-#extraterritorial #city "#Prospera", with permission from #Honduras to "write their own #laws and regulations, design their own #court systems, and operate their own #police forces"

Remember this whenever your hear about the likes of #Thiel, #Andreessen or #Musk seeking to establish their own kingdoms

Less secure founders gravitate to enterprise biz: less random than consumer hits, more stable. Higher floor, lower ceiling.

The *most* insecure hoarder-billionaires gravitate to govt-subsidy biz: #Elon, #Thiel.

Zur Erinnerung: "Ewiges Leben & Weltherrschaft - wer ist Peter #Thiel", Anteilseigner von #Palantir (ZDF Magazin Royale, 11.02.2022) https://invidious.privacydev.net/watch?v=SKY5pOcEn4U

Wir finden es extrem bedenklich, dass es Bundesländer gibt, die #Palantir verwenden https://www.tagesschau.de/investigativ/br-recherche/palantir-software-analyse-polizei-100.html #Thiel

@Tealk
So suppose we have a repeat of #Facebook selling data on their pawns to #CambridgeAnalytica in a #Thiel-brokered scheme to get #Trump in power. And because a fedi admin failed to protect their users from that, those users also became pawns who then added to Trump’s support. Then you discover after Trump gets re-elected what happened.

Isn’t it too late? Are you not to blame for failing to protect your users from predictably becoming FB pawns?

Gutes aus der #ARD Mediathek von Anja #Reschke.
Alternative zur Reichsbürgerkommune ist die Privatstadt von #Thiel und #Gebel. Ganz offiziell wirbt man mit einer staatsfeindlichen Struktur. Beide übrigens dick im Geschäft mit der #BRD (sic).

But #Thiel #rugpulling his followers won't be surprising to anyone but those that get #rugged and they'll likely do an "an hero" instead of guillotining the scammer...

OFC defunding society by tax evasion is the least of #Thiel's problems...

The more one gets to know about #Thiel, the more one wants to punch him...

Interesting read awaiting. « The #Contrarian » Peter #Thiel. By Max #Chafkin.

Kann es sein, dass sehr viele #Superreiche wie #Musk #Thiel #Trump etc. einen Hang zum #Faschismus haben, wahrscheinlich, weil sie davon am meisten finanziell profitieren?

Oder sind das prozentual gesehen eher #Einzelfälle ?

Looks like Peter #Thiel met with Jeffrey #Epstein had multiple meetings scheduled together in Epstein's New York Mansion. And oh Lordy there may be tapes...

Peter #Thiel und seine Pläne.

Fixed it. :0)

Exclusive: Tech billionaire and Republican megadonor Peter #Thiel, an early backer of #Trump who later broke with him, has told associates he is not planning to *PUBLICLY* donate to any political candidates in #2024, according to two people close to the businessman.
