The Companies Behind ICE
U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement has grown its network of private industry partners since the start of the second Trump administration to support its agents as they storm into cities and detain people they suspect of being undocumented immigrants.
Last year, the ICE agency obligated more money than ever to private contractors, and this year it’s on pace to easily top last year’s record. More than 600 companies have been working with Trump’s ICE, including businesses in nearly every state...
This list includes Palantir. One of Australia's largest supermarket chains Coles contracts Palantir to help them with information gathering on their customers and more.

Five useful things I’ve built so far. Plus: Grok caves, and Thinking Machines implodesCasey Newton (Platformer)
Sounds interesting!
I image the Claude agent would need LOTS of access to the host system/local PC with open 'Net access to accomplish this?
The functionality sounds useful but I worry about giving a semi-autonomous agent with potential back doors that much access to my PC/laptop.
Perhaps a separate clean PC or a virtual host would help contain this security problem?
