Succumbing to pressure from @openDemocracy, the UK government has released details of NHS covid data-sharing agreements with Amazon, Microsoft, Google, Faculty and Palantir. https://www.opendemocracy.net/ ...
And here they are. Time to get reading! By the way, it is just such a delight to have documents like this published openly. Huge credit to openDemocracy for taking this approach - more news organisations should follow its lead https://www.opendemocracy.net/ ...
“The contracts show that... Faculty & Palantir, were originally granted intellectual property rights (including the creation of databases), and were allowed to train their models and profit off their unprecedented access to NHS data.” https://www.opendemocracy.net/ ...
They should never have been secret in the first place. Palantir & Faculty contracts among those released for public view. Congrats @openDemocracy & @Foxglovelegal https://www.opendemocracy.net/ ...
