Shira Frankel: 作为一名记者，我发现特朗普政府积极推动Palantir公司参与政府合同，旨在通过该公司集中管理各政府部门的数据。这种数据集中化的做法，虽然表面上是为了提高效率和消除浪费，但实际上可能对个人隐私构成严重威胁。我担心政府可能会利用这些集中化的数据来实现某些政治目的，例如更有效地追踪和驱逐无证移民。此外，Palantir的Foundry工具虽然强大，但如果被不熟悉技术的政府人员使用，可能会导致滥用和侵犯公民权利。更令人担忧的是，Doge团队的一些成员在安全协议方面表现得不够严谨，这可能使整个数据系统面临黑客攻击的风险，最终损害Palantir的声誉。我呼吁公众关注这一问题，并对政府的数据集中化行为保持警惕。
