#CatchcryCancelCulture #CatchcryIdentityPolitics #WebsiteSpikedGarethRoberts "Most of us understand that 'cancel culture' is a polite way of talking about the intimidation and bullying of people with the 'wrong' opinions, by a small number of crazed online children and disturbed young adults. ... Speaking this week at the Cheltenham Literature Festival, Norton decreed of cancelling: 'The word is the wrong word. I think the word should be accountability.' He didn't stop there, either. Our new arbiter of the discourse named the guilty: 'John Cleese has been very public recently about complaining about what you can't say. It must be very hard to be a man of a certain age who's been able to say whatever he likes for years, and now suddenly there's some accountability.'" https://www.spiked-online.com/2022/10/12/why-is-graham-norton-defending-cancel-culture/ #EventUKCheltenhamLiteratureFestival #PhenomnAccountability

Context #AdvocacyUSTakeBackTheCourtFoundationSupremeTransparency "Founded by Joe Lonsdale, a venture capitalist who co-founded Palantir with billionaire Peter Thiel, the Cicero Institute is one of the main right-wing think tanks promoting state-level bans on 'unauthorized street camping,' otherwise known as sleeping in public while unhoused. Lonsdale and one of Cicero's senior advisors suggested on Lonsdale's podcast that the public should return to calling homeless people as 'vagrants,' 'bums,' and 'tramps.'"

#WebsiteDeSmog "As part of the conservative campaign to 'Defund the left' the Capital Research Center produces a range of publications targeting foundations, unions and activist groups that it views as supporting liberal causes." #AdvocacyUSCapitalResearchCenterCRC [Wikipedia] #AdvocacyUSTheHeritageFoundationWillaJohnson [DeSmog] #AdvocacyUSCenterForMediaAndDemocracyCMDSourceWatch "Defund the left is a term used in America to describe efforts by conservative activists to eliminate government financial support for non-profit groups deemed to be 'liberal'. While initially coined in response to Reagan government proposals to curtail funding of non-profits, it has subsequently been more loosely used to describe a range of other administrative measures aimed at silencing advocacy groups."

Supplementary #IRLComedianStewartLee "Good Law Project recently announced it is launching legal action regarding NHS England's use of patient data. But on 22 December, Good Law Project claimed it received leaked emails showing that a PR company called Topham Guerin was planning to discredit them, on behalf of Palantir, which wants that NHS data. Good Law Project believes social media influencers have been asked by Topham Guerin what their 'fee expectation' would be for sending two tweets criticising Good Law Project, while taking care not to mention Topham Guerin or link to Palantir. But if I was Topham Geurin, and I wanted to make Jolyon Maugham mad, I would try to get him to believe Palantir was paying for social media influencers to attack him. Is this deep-vein psyops stuff, or me overthinking everything? Topham Guerin's speciality is 'shitty memes'. 'Sometimes shitty memes are effective,' declared co-founder Sean Topham of content so deliberately unsophisticated it appears, in contrast to the slick memes of 'the elite', trustworthy. Those experts! With their lighting!!

#NewspaperUKBrdshtTheGuardianDanMilmo "Palantir, which draws its name from the powerful crystal balls deployed in JRR Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings, is the favourite to win a £360m contract for the NHS's Federated Data Platform (FDP). Covering everything from individual patients' data to vaccination programmes, waiting lists and medical trials, the FDP will aggregate data from multiple sources and different formats on to a single platform. ... The ambitious scope of the platform has alarmed campaign groups, who fear for patient confidentiality, privacy and data security, but the identity of the frontrunner has also caused concern. US-based Palantir was co-founded by Peter Thiel, one of Silicon Valley's few high-profile Donald Trump supporters. The $15.6bn (£12.7bn) company has been criticised for its work with the US immigration agency, as well as its intelligence service and defence contracts. It already works closely with NHS England by providing software that processes data for a variety of purposes including take-up of Covid-19 vaccines and managing the post-pandemic bounce back in elective care (surgery or treatment booked in advance). But the prospect of it setting up an overarching data platform for NHS England has alarmed Foxglove, a UK legal campaign group that focuses on accountability in the technology industry. Foxglove's concerns, and those of similar organisations, centre on two aspects: the safety of patient data, and the nature of the company that will set up the data framework and seek to exploit it. ... The head of Palantir's London office is Louis Mosley, grandson of Oswald Mosley and nephew of the late former president of Formula One's governing body, Max Mosley, who became a privacy campaigner later in life. Speaking to the Sunday Times in 2020, Louis Mosley said Palantir's origins were as a defender of personal privacy. 'Palantir was actually started to guard against government overreach into personal privacy. Much of the software we've built is to prove those kinds of protections.'" https://www.theguardian.com/society/2022/jun/21/palantir-concerns-over-data-firm-poised-to-be-operating-system-of-nhs #IRLAuthorJRRTolkien #1954_TheLordOfTheRings #BrandTechNHSFederatedDataPlatformNHSFDP [Wikipedia] #LiteralHealthcare #ToponymAmericaNorthUSCaliforniaNorthernSiliconValley #PhenomnPrivacyConfidentiality #ConditionVirusCOVID19 #AdvocacyUKFoxgloveLegal https://www.foxglove.org.uk/who-we-are/ [pdf] #JournalBritishMedicalJournalBMJ 'A controversial new federated data platform for the NHS in England', BMJ 2023; 383 (Published 29 November 2023).
