UK: Palantir break clause


Cross party committee of MPs has just officially recommended that the government trigger the break clause in #Palantir's #NHS contract. The report states:

⚠️"Palantir’s increasing presence across the public sector represents an unacceptable point of weakness"

⚠️"The government's digital transformation ambitions could be derailed at any time by a decision taken outside our shores based on the narrow interests of a foreign commercial or state actor"

⚠️"Palantir will follow their #commercial self-interests in attempting to burrow so deep into the NHS that they cannot be #migrated away from"

⚠️"Of the small number of technology providers that the UK public sector relies upon, Palantir concerns us most"

#Palantir contractors working for #NHS to receive ‘unlimited #access’ to #patient #data

“That means that Palantir #software can only be used to process data precisely in line with the instruction of the #customer. Using the data for anything else would not only be illegal but technically impossible due to granular access controls overseen by the NHS.”


"technically impossible" - #lol 😭

Our new dentist surgery dumped NHS patients at the first possible chance. They also have “pay as you go” and tiered payment plans. The more you pay, the quicker you get to see the dentist. Money buys you access.

This is what private health looks like. Fight for your #NHS

Only just spotted this.
Twenty #NHS trusts are sharing intimate details about patients’ medical conditions, appointments & treatments with #Facebook without consent and despite promising never to do so.
"The data includes granular details of pages viewed, buttons clicked and keywords searched. It is matched to the user’s IP address – an identifier linked to an individual or household – and in many cases details of their Facebook account"
