Honestly every single time there is news about UK, I am glad I didn't take the offer.
Then again, me being already not very enthusiastic about the place had a role in my decision.
I literally had someone ask me the other day if it's safe to go to London. Like, to visit as a tourist. We've reached some level of absurdity that is almost comedic, but that's what news does to people.
Oh, they don't have permission? probably fine then.
All the Palantir employees have read that clause of course.
In Australia when the biggest health insurer had ALL patient records stolen, the Board of Directors immediately granted themselves very large cash bonuses (true).
This is worrying as there recently was a change in the Japanese PII law, relatively unceremoniously passed and enacted, that reclassify mass PII collection including medical data collection as anonymous and consent-free with the condition that anonymization is performed after collection, which, IMO, IANAL, completely nullify the PII law. I can easily "see" Palantir behind it with my tinfoil hat on, but I'm not sure why do anyone want it in the first place. I don't think they need medical data specifically to take people to the back and dispose of the body.
Daddy Thiel needs a bloodbank. The last one mysteriously died under the guise of a 'suicide'.
