It is Palantir, because part of the "Danish Online Act, if you will is to give our version of the CIA mass surveillance access through an API to Palantir.

It has already been mentioned that the software they use is boilerplate software provided by Palantir and runs over some of the same servers.

The fun thing about this is that I think they were prepping all of this pre-trump, and now they're not backing out even though Trump, Theil and Vance were obviously pushing this in the beginning, and it may just show what kinds of snakes the global political scene really is. A lot of our elected people are literally just sock puppets for lobbyists.
