"One official reportedly described Palantir as 'ethically bankrupt' in justifying his refusal to use the software, and noted that he knows of coworkers who deliberately slow their work pace when forced to use the system."
"Another noted that the system actually 'doesn't do anything new for us,' and said they prefer to work around it, but that they also feel a tinge of ethical guilt whenever they have to use it."
"'It makes me feel sick every time I log into the thing and I know I'm not alone in that,' the individual told the FT."
NHS England's adoption of Palantir's Federated Data Platform faces resistance from staff over ethical and privacy concerns. Many NHS professionals are boycotting the system, citing discomfort with Palantir's history and its ties to the US government. Some care boards have delayed implementation, and the British Medical Association has urged doctors to refrain from using the software. Reports indicate that staff feel ethically conflicted and uncomfortable using a system they believe does not enhance their work processes.
