    From what I understand : Palantir is doing everything what Facebook does but the end game is not the same. Facebook want to sell your metadata to publicist to sell you a dream that you will buy. Palantir, however, is doing this and selling it to fascist governments and buying lobbyists to push fascist legislation

        What they mean is that Facebook is on the supply side of data and Palantir is on the demand side.

        Tons of companies are selling all of your data, Palantir is buying all of the data and selling integrated surveillance of your activities to anyone who can operate a wire transfer.
