🚨 $PLTR cofounder Peter Thiel: Palantir was created for Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency, if people at USAID should be charged with fraud, and how him and Karp got blocked at the NSA 👀🔮 “There are a lot of ways that something like Palantir ends up being a constraint on government action. A lot of the abuses, the most extreme overreach happens in contexts where people thought there would be no accountability ever inside the government. “Something like the Guantanamo stuff in Bush 43— nobody knew what was going on. If nobody knows, it can go really crazy. Then of course, at some point, people know, and the inmates take over the asylum. “There probably were a lot of deep state excesses that happen where, if Palantir had been used, there would have been more of a record of what people were doing. The NSA has not worked with Palantir. There’s all these different suspicions… Ifyou had this outside software system where you actually tracked how often this stuff was used, there would’ve been much more risk this stuff would’ve gotten exposed, there would have been a track record… “We somehow got blocked at NSA very early on. The explanation Alex [Karp] and I are sympathetic to was, the people at NSA believed that whatever power the software gave them, it also limited their power, because there would be more accountability. “At some point, you have a line item track record, where you know exactly where the money is going. “Something like this is what Oliver North was charged with in the 1980s, that he engaged in fraud because he had mischaracterized various payments. If we want to be aggressive, so many of the people working at USAID could be charged with fraud like Oliver North was charged with fraud. Via The Rubin Report Peter Thiel
