If the Swiss government told this magazine about rejecting Palantir, it seems like Palantir should sue the Swiss government because they are the source of the narrative.
Magazine reports shitty company rejected by government
Shitty company attempts to sue magazine for reporting on news
Everyone laughs at shitty company.
Did i read it incorrectly or did they want to force the magazine to publish an article that follows their narrative? If so thats crazy.
Also: Swiss freedom of speech goes BRRRRRRR

Please imagine such an assembly for my response.
I love playing hangman, don’t you?
That’s a career path I’d very much enjoy.
Can someone burn it to the ground and bar every single person responsible for these companies in a cell somewhere on the moon so they never witness the blue sky again in their life
Nonono it’s “eat the rich” not “send the rich to the moon”. We have to keep the logistics in mind here. I mean, think of the rocket fuel. In this economy no less.
Best we could do would be some form of slingshot. I reckon the g forces would kill them long before they arrive and there would be little more than a small stain left on the moon. Somebody needs to do the math on this. I’ll make the logo.
Mulch the rich. They make better fertilizer than food.
Except the bio hacking vitamin nut jobs. Their remains belong in a superfund site.
How about shooting them out of a cannon off a very, very tall cliff? Let them be fully aware of their own mortality and impending death as the ground rapidly approaches below.
You’re burning the wrong thing. Burn every single person responsible for these companies.
We need to make books with their names and faces and business relationships. All the ghouls. All of them. They should never sleep another night restfully.
We need to make books with their names and faces
Books in the style of the necromicon?
We could bind them in those that are removed from the book.
Captain Coke says it’s ok to occasionally kill people.
There are regular protests outside their main engineering office in Palo Alto.
Well, they sued the magazine for not wanting to post their rebuttal, which they are obligated to under Swiss law. I’m not saying it’s not a little silly, but they didn’t sue them for the article.
Thank you for the correction. While the headline is technically correct, it’s misleading in that it connects the suing directly to the published article.
Republik’s managing director Katharina Hemmer said Palantir had wanted the magazine to publish a very lengthy counterstatement to each article. Republik believed the proposed statements did not fairly address or rebut the reporting, she said, adding that the magazine stands by its reporting.
While right of reply actions are a common tool in Switzerland, it is unusual for a large international company to file one against a local media organisation.
Yeah, to hell with Palantir and full support to the publication.
The old Peter Thiel Special
Wonder how many coked up rapists are involved in this story.
Relevant bit so you don’t have to dig in the article like I just did:
Billionaire Peter Thiel, a co-founder of PayPal and former Facebook board member, paid $10 million to help finance lawsuits against Gawker Media, including the Bollea lawsuit. The idea had been brought to him by Australian businessman Aron D’Souza. Thiel called his financial support of Bollea’s case “one of my greater philanthropic things that I’ve done.”[34][35][36] Gawker had published an article in 2007 outing Thiel as gay.[37][38]
I thought they like being the lighting rod of dispute, so why would they want to rebut the article?
I think it’s more like Thiel looking for any reason whatsoever to take down Gawker.
