#dataminr — Public Fediverse posts

"According to a seating chart seen by +972 Magazine, a “Maven Field Service Representative” has been present at the CMCC. Built by the U.S. tech company Palantir, whose logo was visible in presentations given inside the Center, Maven collects and analyses surveillance data taken from warzones to speed-up U.S. military operations, including lethal airstrikes. The platform sucks information from satellites, spy planes, drones, intercepted telecommunications, and the internet, and “packages it into a common, searchable app for commanders and support groups,” according to U.S. defense outlets.

The U.S. military calls Maven its “AI-powered battlefield platform.” It has already been deployed to guide U.S. airstrikes across the Middle East, including in Yemen, Syria, and Iraq. Palantir has marketed its technology as shortening the process of identifying and bombing military targets — what the company’s CTO recently described as “optimizing the kill chain.” Over the summer, Palantir scored a $10 billion contract to update and refine the Maven platform for U.S. armed forces.

Palantir has also worked closely with Israel’s military since January 2024, when the two parties entered into a “strategic partnership” for “war related missions.” The company has been aggressively recruiting employees to staff its Tel Aviv office, which first opened in 2015 and has expanded significantly over the last two years. Justifying its stalwart commitment to Israel in spite of mounting charges of war crimes and genocide, Palantir CEO Alex Karp recently said his company was the first to be “completely anti-woke.”"

"Based on the records obtained by The Intercept, which span October 2023 to April 2024, Dataminr alerted the LAPD of more than 50 different protests, including at least a dozen before they occurred...Privacy and civil liberties experts argue that police surveillance of First Amendment activity from afar has chilling effect on political association, discourse and dissent." #Dataminr #Musk #PoliceState #politics

"emails between the U.S. Secret Service and the #surveillance firm #Dataminr, obtained by The Intercept from a Freedom of Information Act request, show X/#Twitter is in an awkward position, profiting from the sale of user data for government surveillance purposes at the same time as it was fighting secrecy around another flavor of state surveillance in court."

To be fair, this predated #Musk, but he's since done nothing to halt it, making his own hypocrisy worse.

Elon Musk Fought #GovernmentSurveillance — While Profiting Off Government Surveillance

Musk made hay of his legal battle against secret surveillance but continued selling X user data to a company that facilitates government monitoring.

"While national security letters allow the government to make targeted demands for non-public data on an individual basis, companies like #Dataminr continuously monitor public activity on social media and other internet platforms. Dataminr provides its customers with customized real-time 'alerts' on desired topics, giving clients like police departments a form of social media omniscience. The alerts allow police to, for instance, automatically track a #protest as it moves from its planning stages into the streets, without requiring police officials to do any time-intensive searches."

However, emails between the U.S. Secret Service and the surveillance firm Dataminr, obtained by The Intercept from a Freedom of Information Act request, show X is in an awkward position, profiting from the sale of user data for government surveillance purposes at the same time as it was fighting secrecy around another flavor of state surveillance in court.

The strongest evidence that #Meta and #X aren’t following their own anti-surveillance policies comes from vendors themselves: #Dataminr (official “partner” of X), #BabelStreet, #Skopenow, #MediaSonar, and ShadowDragon publicly claim that they have access to data from Meta and/or X. Those companies sell their services, data, and products — which appear to operate at extraordinary scale — to police and other gov;t agencies through contracts that can be extremely lucrative.
