They know what they are doing, and that is openly bragging about how evil they are.
I mean, the company is literally named after this fucking thing from LOTR. These people are comic book level evil.
I mean, the name!
The palantiri (Tolkien) are not evil. Literally just a magic viewing orb.
I’m baffled the Tolkien estate didn’t sue them into oblivion for using the name.
I know, but given that when we see them in the series they’re exclusively used by Evil, its… it just floors me
And the whole reason they’re evil is because the most powerful person who has one gets to choose what all the others see. I’m sure there’s no metaphor there.
Wow, maybe you just hate capitalism and freedom and breathing exercises and having slaves.
I wish these tech company owners would resolve their childhood traumas in other ways than trying to fuck the life for the rest of the world.
Okay. What about the freedom? The dignity? The conscience?
We have to start somewhere

I saw those ads at an airport too. Can’t imagine what they expect people to do when they see the ad… Who’s even the target audience for ads like this in the airport?
Rich CEOs. Those tend to fly a lot.
And not one of them is going through the public terminal.
It depends. Some have a private jet but most still fly first class. One of the rare instances where the plebeians and bourgeoisie mingle. Which is why we see their ads.
Intimidation, they’re not hiding it. They’re just letting you know.
I think anyone who hires this company needs to have people close to them dying on a regular basis, and anyone who works for them needs to watch their family tree get fucking pruned.
All palantir participants are the enemy. And they’re not nearly scared enough.
Just kill us all then. We don’t want to be part of that world.
Well, now we know the name for the company starting the first corporate war
SecuroServ from GTA.
Very cyberpunk.
… relax, it’s in a fascist way, not the sexy way (unless fascism is your kink, but even at that, they won’t respect your safeword, or ever stop unless stopped by a more dominating force).
Me using the internet like I’m on Arrakis and the sand worm is deanonymization
Just put “WE’RE THE BAD GUYS” in the ad copy.
And then they bring Skynet online. Prepare for fighting against the terminators, folks!
