ICE is using a Palantir tool that uses Medicaid and other government data to stalk people for arrest, @404mediaco reports. This is exactly the kind of data privacy abuse that EFF has been warning about. https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2026/01/report-ice-using-palantir-tool-feeds-medicaid-data

Here’s the @404mediaco report: https://www.404media.co/elite-the-palantir-app-ice-uses-to-find-neighborhoods-to-raid/
‘ELITE’: The Palantir App ICE Uses to Find Neighborhoods to Raid

Internal ICE material and testimony from an official obtained by 404 Media provides the clearest link yet between the technological infrastructure Palantir is building for ICE and the agency’s activities on the ground.

Tragically the UK government is handing over NHS patient data to Palatir. One has to wonder what level of idiological stupid is at work?

@eff @404mediaco To enable this was the real job of D.O.G.E.

Musk & whatever the slimebag’s name was, tore down the firewalls between different government data storages (which were there for a reason), to make this kind of consolidation possible.

The ”efficiency” never materialised because it was a flat-out lie.

Perhaps we finally worked out what DOGE was dumping all those government databases for? 🤔

@barbarakathmann Hier een voorbeeld hoe #palantier #fascisten helpt met #data. Talloze landen gebruiken ook deze software. Ook de Nederlandse #politie gebruikt deze #software. Mag dat wel van de #AP?

@eff @404mediaco i just realised : all the ICE programm & trump supporter need to do illegal stuff so that thrumps crimes become part of their own life. And now there is a bigger group that will be juged for what they were doing after the elections - its a trap. This is only possible because of actseptance of criminal peopel in power out of reassons like money , fear , hate and mostly monopolasation. The clan strukture - famelyoffice were loyality is moor important than lawfullnes.

@eff @404mediaco "confidence score" is just another term for "social credit score", isn't it? We're but a hop and a skip away from the Sesame system.
