44,000 file legal objections to Palantir handling NHS data

Original: More than 44,000 file legal objections to Palantir NHS platform handling their data https://www. theguardian.com/technol

More than 44,000 people in the UK have filed legal objections to the NHS data platform run by Palantir, asking that their medical records not be handled by the US tech company's system. The scale of the filings highlights growing public unease over private firms' access to sensitive health data, and critics have also raised concerns over Palantir's work with defence and immigration authorities.

Why now: The large number of opt-outs has reignited debate over privacy and the role of Palantir in the NHS.
