Europe's rift with Palantir over data and defense
Original: Opinion: Silicon diplomacy, kinetic realities: Why Europe is evicting Palantir
An opinion piece argues that Europe is moving to push out Palantir, the US data analytics firm with deep defense and intelligence contracts. The article frames the dispute as a clash between American 'silicon diplomacy' and Europe's drive for technological sovereignty, warning that digital dependence carries real strategic and military consequences as transatlantic ties strain.
Why now: Ongoing European efforts to reduce reliance on US tech and defense contractors are drawing renewed attention.
