"This is the tale of Alex Karp, the CEO of Palantir Technologies—a company at the dark core of the new global surveillance state. His software enables predictive policing, AI-directed drone strikes, and real-time battlefield data integration, all in partnership with the world’s most powerful intelligence and military agencies. Karp reaps immense profits from war, repression, and the commodification of fear while covering his actions in the language of Western values and civil liberty.
In the age of techno-nationalism, Karp and Palantir stand as exemplars of a system where war gives profit meaning, technology is used to justify moral oblivion, and the very notion of democracy is hollowed out in pursuit of control." - Films For Action
