If you're in England, your #NHS medical data is due to be shared with #PeterThiel's military surveillance firm #Palantir.

Fyi, Palantir have already been using their access to US medical records to target people for #ICE, and #ReformUK have published their plans for ICE UK...

In case you — like me — object to this in the strongest of terms, the @goodlawproject have put together this handy tool to check your local NHS Trust's position, and to say no to this.

Say no to Palantir in the NHS

NHS England is rolling out software to run our health records from Palantir - fight back

No to Palantir

@DarkOptimism @goodlawproject I think this applies to England not the UK.

@AngleseyStick @DarkOptimism @goodlawproject yes, I'm pretty sure this is NHS England only.

It's still absolutely crazy though. And it's possible that it might include some data on Welsh patients who have been treated in England because of cross-border arrangements.

All supposedly anonymised, but put together a few medical conditions plus AI, join to one or two other databases (such as data harvested from social media) and deanonymising becomes fairly easy.
