Protect Our Data from Palantir!

We should all be concerned about the Department of Defense’s partnership with Palantir and now Oura, which threatens the privacy of millions of Americans. When private health and device data is merged with military databases managed by a corporation celebrated for its surveillance, it puts every person's rights at risk.

Stop these contracts and launch a full, transparent review of how Americans’ biometric and personal information might be used or abused under this agreement. Congress must act now to create strict legal barriers against this kind of bulk data collection and cross-referencing for government use.

Our health and activity information should never be used without my consent, especially not for military surveillance. Please work to restore the public’s trust and protect our basic rights to privacy and freedom by investigating how American's data will be used from Palantir and Oura. 

Why is this important?

Every person should be worried about the fact that their private life is now vulnerable to  unprecedented government surveillance. This is not exaggeration. The Department of Defense’s lucrative contract with Palantir, and especially now its $100 MILLION dollar collaboration with Oura threaten to put our most personal information—health, movement, and biometric data—into the hands of a company known for powerful data aggregation tools. When technology designed to track every heartbeat or daily step is merged with vast military databases, the very concept of privacy is erased.

This partnership isn’t just about improving national security—it’s about forming a super-database where artificial intelligence can analyze, cross-reference, and predict almost everything about every single person. Oura, initially trusted by millions as a health monitoring brand, now will enable the government to monitor individuals in ways that would have previously sounded like sci-fi. 

Any single database of this size and power is prone to abuse. History shows: When powerful interests and sensitive data combine, ordinary people’s rights are at risk.

Palantir’s political connections and track record of profiting from government surveillance only amplify these risks. Americans have a fundamental right to keep their health and personal data private—and to stop companies like Palantir and Oura from helping the government erase that privacy.
