Palantir Technologies is suing Republik Magazine over an investigation into Palantir’s activities in Switzerland, published in December 2025. The lawsuit demands a counterstatement and is currently being heard by the Zurich Commercial Court.
Read the story that made Palantir sue us — now available in English.

@republik_magazin i like how Palantir's approach method is very discreet, and each connection is intentionally designed to be impactful down to the last bit. a good read.

🧵 Meta is about to monetize every conversation you have with their AI.

December 16 is the deadline. Here's what I found after accidentally summoning Meta AI in a family group chat:

Starting Dec 16, every Meta AI interaction becomes:
• Training data for their models
• Intent data for advertisers
• Reviewed by human contractors

Your health questions = ad inventory
Your financial concerns = targeting parameters

3.2B users. Most will click "OK" without reading.

The "Post to Feed" feature is deliberately confusing.

People are accidentally publishing:
• Tax advice
• Medical questions
• Legal issues
• Infidelity confessions

All publicly searchable. All tied to their profiles.

This isn't a bug. It's the design.

The primary advantage of using Signal over WhatsApp is that Signal does not store metadata. Just sayin'.

@evacide @starraven do you guys have alternatives that you'd suggest?

Alfredolin oh yeah, i did check that out just a few days ago. I was a fan first, but later I got to know that they do not keep users data encrypted, so decided to ultimately get rid of it :/

Alfredolin wow do they? That's nice I'll definitely check that out. Is there any actually good Discord alternative tho?

Alfredolin Matrix has metadata leaks tho, and it isn't perfect. You could try Mattermost, I have done so yet. The thing I'm doing is just making groups in Signal or even just sticking to plain old Discord. It's kind of like YouTube, where it's hard to find an actually good replacement.
