Looks like Palantir may have fallen into the Streisand trap;

in seeking their right to reply (under Swiss media law) via the courts, they have drawn a lot more attention to two articles (based on Freedom of Information requests) that reveal why the Swiss state refused to do a deal with Palantir for some military software; they were worried data would be obtained by the US Govt.

Now a story, originally limited to the Swiss is gaining traction across Europe; oops.
