Campaigners argue the company is 'not just another tech company', citing concerns over its surveillance and data contracts with public authorities, and are pressing officials to cancel existing agreements.
Why now: Growing public and political concern in Europe over government use of Palantir's surveillance technology has mobilised unions and rights groups into a coordinated campaign.
