You do know that Palantir is now in the UK and getting access to data through the same "health" channels, don't you ? https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-56590249


UK government departments are slow and hostile to change, so I am skeptical that Palantir being parachuted in, would produce anything more than a CSV file with a few hundred rows in it.

The U.S. government almost certainly has intimate health data on every Briton as a result of these deals.


Palantir holds over £1B in contracts with the UK government, some of them of an undisclosed nature. Must be some impressive CSV.


They've been in there for some time. Just ask Wes Streeting.
