I'll bump this, as Foxglove seem to be doing some great work taking on abuses of power around tech issues.

A bit more about them and the work they do - https://www.wired.co.uk/article/foxglove-bigtech-legal-data

I’m sure our resident Lexiteer will view this as more Orwellian surveillance. In reality it’s what they voted for. It’s a deal that likely wouldn’t have even been possible pre-Brexit, as any unjustified harvesting of data would likely fall foul of GDPR.

My view is that there are a lot of scare stories around NHS data.

This from the Open Democracy article sounds sensible, as I'd rather a hospital in, say, Manchester have access to my medical records.

"The £480m contract to provide software joining up patient data between different NHS trusts is set to be announced imminently. The project, known as the “federated data platform”, is NHS England’s latest attempt to consolidate patient data into a centralised system."

And of course there will clearly be built into the system adequate safeguards so that harvesting data won't be possible.

And if it weren't Palantir, it might well be Crapita whose track record is appalling.

Oops thanks. An extra full stop snuck in and messed up the link. Works now.
