  • Thats true but ID companies are not lobbying or making changes on a scale that matters. This change isnt going through because an id company lobbied the government.

    This statement is what I’m disagreeing with. It just wrong.

    These changes are going through because Palantir lobbied the government, or more specifically Peter Thiel. They have 34ish contracts with the government right now across MoD and NHS. One of the ID verification companies (Persona) is also his. This information drives the technologies he sells to the MoD for tracking individuals. Technology currently being used by ICE and in Gaza.

    You’re right, it’s not about discord. It’s about making databases of all living people on earth and how they interact with each other.

    There’s a number of MPs that have grave concerns about this relationship as well. https://youtu.be/cvDF7Z18Anc
