airstrike 5 months ago | parent | context | favorite | on: Say No to Palantir in Europe

Not at all. It's against using Palantir specifically, not against the idea of something like Palantir "but European".

It's literally at the very top of the article:

- Stop signing new contracts with Palantir.

- Review and phase out existing contracts with the company.

- Invest in transparent, publicly accountable European alternatives.

And Palantir isn't like gunpowder, so I'm not even sure the analogy had any legs to begin with

Half of the comments in this thread are expressing how they're very against the idea of something like Palantir "but European". It seems like some Europeans really believe that handicapping themselves is a good idea.
