Peter Hummelgaard is a bitch for Palantir and still gets way too much exposure.

[–] Buffalox@lemmy.world 0 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

For fucks sake, Peter Hummelgaard is perfectly normal and rational, I'd even say moral person, and he is minister of justice, so of course he gets exposure.

If you for instance read his May 1. speech, yoyu can see he is very sensible.

Is this sarcastic?

Peter Hummelgaard who said that "We must break with the totally erroneous perception that it is everyone’s civil liberty to communicate on encrypted messaging services".

And who eagerly keeps exposing the Danish population to the use of Palantir's Gotham software by the police?

That is so stereotypical for anyone in his position. That's not just him, I agree it's a sad state of affairs, and I don't know why this stupidity is so common. But that particular issue any other minister of justice would be more than 90% likely to have the same opinion, after they've been briefed by PET and FET or whatever cancer is behind it.

I really don't think everyone in this role would be bending the country 90 degrees for the USA to have their way with it.

Especially when you want to appear in any way strongly opposed to them having their way with your colony.

Also, he is the one who (barely) rewrote ChatControl proposal to be able to push it again during the Danish presidency of the EU, so he's actually occasionally a risk for the whole Union.
