When the interim government was caught (“by mistake”) having made an agreement with the notorious American (agent of the CIA and the Pentagon…) Palantir, secretly assigning to it the collection and processing of data for “better management of the pandemic”, it swore (the interim government) that it never provided personal or personally identifiable data, and that everything was done “with respect for the privacy” of citizens.
Strange. Very strange… Strange that the local officials rejected the capabilities of the technology but, mainly, the methods of those they admired and still admire. Such as, for example, the CDC – the American “centers for disease control and prevention”.
What elementary anti-capitalist analysis would have supported with certainty without “documents” is now documented… The CDC purchased location data from private companies (most likely telecommunications…) of at least 55 million mobile users in the US; along, of course, with their phone numbers and whatever else accompanies them… They didn’t cost much. Only $528,000. Something less than 1 cent per head…
No, no, don’t let your mind go to the dark side!!! The cross-voting digital folder was created for a good cause! As the CDC spokesperson said, “the purpose was to better organize the defense against the virus and improve the shortcomings of protection measures through monitoring behaviors such as staying at home, observing restrictions on movement, banning gatherings, wearing masks, and anything else that would favor the spread of Sars-CoV-2.”
Oh, okay… (So Palandir was hired in our areas to find the shortages of hospitals in antiseptics…)
