Much of the technology built in SV was either birthed in a military research lab (ARPA / DARPA) or built in a private context with an intended military / surveillance use case. Much of this tech is highly lucrative due to its invasive nature but make no mistake that is not the main reason for its development.
Read Surveillance Valley by Yasha Levine and Means of control by Byron Tau if you want to learn more. If you read those books it will become abundantly clear what Palantir is, and it’s nothing new.
People think you have to be designing missiles or tanks to count as a military contractor but not all military technology looks violent on its face. Much of it operates underneath the hood and is used to target said missles or simply provide a way for decision makers to wash their hands of cold blooded murder.

You account is not even 3 months old. In that time you made 6 submissions, all of them appears to be to your own work. You have only commented 9 times, with almost all of them being comments about your work.
I miss the 1990s a bit; there used to be elderly folks who did not know much about HTML/CSS, but they were real, no AI autogenerating slop there. I can't even tell what is real and what is AI slop anymore.
FWIW, their are typoes in it, too.
