Friend,

Big tech company Palantir is making headlines—and record profits—from harvesting massive amounts of personal data to spy on our communities.

Most recently, Palantir signed a $30 million contract with ICE to surveil and track immigrants, making it easier to tear families apart and disappear our neighbors.

Trump’s administration isn’t the only one contracting with Palantir – city governments have contracted with them to surveil communities without any transparency to the public.

No company or its billionaire CEOs should have this much power to invade our privacy and uphold Trump’s anti-immigrant, fascist agenda city-by-city. Tell the NYC Council to stop the invasion of our privacy and investigate, reveal, and drop any city contracts with Palantir Technologies.

SIGN THE PETITION

Co-founded by Trump’s billionaire mega-donor Peter Thiel, Palantir is thriving under this administration’s fascist agenda — because their entire business model depends on crisis and making our communities suffer.

Palantir’s most harmful partnerships also include:

  • Creating predictive tools for police departments–including the NYPD–to justify racial profiling and target Black & Brown communities
  • Building AI tools to automate claim denials for health insurance companies so corporate elites can profit at the expense of our health
  • Providing AI-driven surveillance & data analytics to the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) to target Palestinians

Palantir is using our tax dollars to fuel genocide, increase deportations, and spy on our communities — but we can stop this unchecked power grab by pressuring our elected officials to end New York City’s ties to Palantir.

Add your name to demand that the NYC Council stop Palantir’s power grab.

SIGN THE PETITION

Thank you for taking action with us,

Sol and the rest of the NYCC team
