More media coverage of Palantir report: Al Jazeera explainer and other useful links

Al Jazeera explainer and other links to CICTAR’s report on Palantir

Global media outlet Al Jazeera has provided an excellent explainer on why Palantir is so controversial and the implications of CICTAR’s latest report on the US tech corporation Palantir.

The piece points out that Palantir’s tax arrangements are particularly significant because much of its rapid growth has been driven by public contracts and quotes Duncan McCann, tech and data lead at the Good Law Project in the UK, who told Al Jazeera that the findings were “a slap in the face to ordinary taxpayers and local businesses who play by the rules”.
