- Palantir’s role: Palantir is a U.S. data analytics company that works closely with governments, militaries, and intelligence agencies. Its software is used for surveillance, battlefield logistics, and predictive policing.
- CEO’s comments: The Gizmodo piece highlights Karp’s tendency to make provocative, sometimes shocking statements about war, ethics, and business. The “war crimes constitutional” remark is framed as a cynical acknowledgment that Palantir profits when governments push the boundaries of legality in wartime.
- Underlying critique: The article is less about a literal proposal and more about exposing the tension between Palantir’s business model and human rights concerns.
