A trove of leaked emails have shone further light on Palantir founder Peter Thiel's connections to Jeffrey Epstein

In 2023, the then-Conservative government awarded Palantir with a £330m contract to “build a new NHS data platform”. The move proved controversial because Palantir is a US spy tech firm and its co-founder Peter Thiel is a prominent Trump donor with links to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. Now, a trove of leaked emails have shone further light on Thiel’s connections.

    It’s universally true that having more and better information can improve business and efficiency. (This of course has limits, yes.)

    I’m sure they were offering data that would help the agency.

    Now the ethics, and creepiness? I’m not commenting on that. Palantir is not ethical. They labor under twisted logic.

    And every time we mention their name online, we probally get a demerit in their database.
