It might interest people to know that there is a real company called Palantir Technologies, Inc., set up in 2004. Its website can be found here:
http://www.palantir.com/ Among its products are 'Palantir Government' and 'Palantir Finance'. ![]() http://www.palantirtech.com/government/pnl The company is presently involved in a lot of controversy, as can be seen here: http://www.salon.com/news/opinion/gl...tir/index.html ![]() I'm very sure that this would not have happened if Fëanor had still been CEO! ![]() |
