Experts warn that, in light of the Trump administration’s threats to crack down on “far-left” groups, the scope of application for Palantir’s tools could only grow. Already, a new report from the Intercept revealed HSI subpoenaed and received information from Google about international students who were being investigated over their pro-Palestinian activism.

“Now [with access to more federal databases] Ice can use this type of surveillance apparatus on anyone – not only anyone who is undocumented but anyone who this administration wants to criminalize and anyone who the administration wants to put under surveillance,” said González of MediaJustice.

"Time and time again, you’re seeing Ice act in ways that are incredibly violent and aggressive. It does have a chilling effect. When you know they have a technology that can track relationships, your conversations, and your organizing activity, that can be a silencing force.”

Meanwhile we have Peter Thiel telling us we can’t have regulations applied to tech bc it will lead to authoritarian rule. Trump’s science advisor Michael Kratsios is helping him do this.

But if we don’t have regulations, what he is building will also clearly lead to an authoritarian rule. But I guess he will be in charge, so it’s ok?

Additionally, with the help of Thomas Massie, he gets rid of the federal reserve, destroy the U.S. dollar and replace it with gold and crypto.

So the dollar will collapse, and with Thiel as our authoritarian leader, our entire lives will be constantly surveilled, our data will be collected and exploited, and it turns out Thiel has a crypto company he’s started with all those billions in soon to be useless American dollars he stole or received in government contracts. Like our forefathers always dreamed about.
