Just because Palantir was asked by Aaron Barr to use their technology against Greenwald does not mean that they did. Palantir later confirmed that their technology didn&amp;#x27;t even have the ability to do what Aaron Barr was asking.&lt;p&gt;This is the second smear against Palantir in three days that cites an email without even showing the email to give you some context. They also don&amp;#x27;t link to Palantirs response to these claims.&lt;p&gt;Please approach this with some level of skepticism.</text></comment>

I have noticed many of the same irrational comments being made on articles about Snowden in the MSM and then being voted up more than they seem to deserve (See, for instance, the comments on any NYTimes article on Snowden. Not that the NYTimes comment sections are any model of rationality normally.)&lt;p&gt;I&amp;#x27;m biased so maybe I&amp;#x27;m seeing things where there isn&amp;#x27;t anything, but if the tech was funded, then it&amp;#x27;s being deployed somewhere. Where other than the MSM would it make sense to deploy it, and how would the MSM identify sock puppets if they were targeted?</text></comment>
