The allegation is completely insane and "hits all the right notes" sorta speak. So I'm not convinced until I see some actual evidence.
Totally agree. I want to believe, but you don’t just drop claims like that without serious substantiation.
Unless you're Kim Dotcom. That's just another thursday for him
You're not wrong! I posted in another thread here recently about my concerns about Palantir and our need for a real whistleblower — but Kim Dotcom is definitely not that guy.
As someone who has worked in the field for a bit now, Kim Dotcom has not really been relevant in the security space for some time now. This entire post reaks of "trust me bro". Maybe provide some links? Some dumps? Hashes? IoCs?! Shite even a screenshot of a forum of the info.
Why would anyone think this is true?
This tweet provides zero evidence for its claims. The tweet itself certainly doesn't meaningfully count as evidence. Who's alleging this? Not even Kim Dotcom himself is alleging this, the subtext is that he got this from someone else who is claiming this, but this further source seems to be "trust me bro".
The content of the tweet actually seems more expected on the "I'm lying while doing a hit tweet on Palantir" hypothesis than it is the "Dotcom has a reliable source from a Palantir hack" hypothesis. And, not for nothing, but our prior in Dotcom lying should be pretty high.
Who is KimDotcom? Also, don't make the same mistake I did and look at the replies. Holy moly.
Edit: I backed out of the comments before looking further. This is awful antisemitic nonsense.
He's mostly known for founding Megaupload and Mega, but he's also a massive conspiracy theorist/racist/PoS, as you've noticed.

For anyone who doesn't want to go to the actual twitter website.
You could tell me almost anything negative about Palantir and I'd probably believe it. But some of this sounds pretty out there
This made me laugh out loud.
Is this guy a Russian mouth piece?
It is worth noting, I think, that Russia has repeatedly (falsely) accused the US of producing bioweapons in Ukraine as part of their disinformation efforts.

I thought we were better here than posting links to the flaming garbage pile formerly known as twitter.
For those who maybe don't know, you can always filter out content from Twitter/X by adding
source.xto your topic tag filter page found here.This story might prove partly or fully false and blow over. If not, welcome to the next circus. I'm not sure why the spelling switched from Palantir to Palentir mid article.
Kimdotcom is an extremely unreliable source. Seems their only justification for asserting this as fact is that they believe it's some grand jewish world supremacy conspiracy theory.
I think this thread should be renamed to include the word “allegedly.” That’s not just my own bias, it’s also how Kim Dotcom’s post starts. @deimos @cfabbro
Fixed.
I also removed the "(big surprise)" part too, since that feels overly editorialized.
Agreed. Good catch.
So... they downloaded a copy of the Epstein files...?
