Why Europe is pushing out Palantir

Original: Opinion: Silicon diplomacy, kinetic realities: Why Europe is evicting Palantir

A new opinion piece argues that European governments are moving to evict Palantir, the US data-analytics firm founded by Peter Thiel, reflecting a broader clash between what the author calls 'silicon diplomacy' and 'kinetic realities'. The article frames Europe's rejection of American surveillance and defence tech as part of a wider struggle over digital sovereignty and reliance on US contractors.

Why now: Ongoing European pushback against US tech firms and digital-sovereignty debates are drawing attention to Palantir's position in the region.
