The article emphasizes the central role of Palantir Technologies, a company linked to military and law enforcement, in the collection and analysis of vast amounts of personal data under the Trump administration. With an executive order mandating federal agencies to share data, Palantir's AI platform is positioned to integrate information from multiple government sources to potentially advance political agendas and surveil citizens. This evokes concerns about privacy invasion, authoritarianism, and misuse of power as the tech sector intertwines with government surveillance efforts.

‘Palantir is now poised to combine data gleaned from the Department of Homeland Security, Department of Defense, Department of Health and Human Services, Social Security Administration, and IRS.’
