Alex Karp Insists Palantir Doesn’t Spy on Americans. Here’s What He’s Not Saying. Documents from Edward Snowden published by The Intercept in 2017 show the NSA’s use of Palantir technology.

Palantir and its CEO are increasingly trying to spin the idea it would engage in civil liberties-violating state surveillance as absurd. Unfortunately for this PR push, we previously caught them helping run a flagship NSA dragnet surveillance program. theintercept.com/2025/09/12/p...
