For anyone in the UK, the Government has just given Palantir, a surveillance company that I passionately dislike, access to sensitive medical records of Covid-19 patients for £1.
Brilliant. Absolutely brilliant.
@freddyym that's unreasonably fucked up... Good luck to those in the UK
@freddyym "Data includes personal contact details, gender, race, occupation, physical and mental health conditions, past criminal offenses, as well as religious and political affiliation."
So that's not only medical records.
@syntax @freddyym #Palantir is particularly evil with their right-wing ties to #PeterThiel and pushing #xenophobia in the US
