Palantir's entire purpose for existence is to implement the Total Information Awareness program that US citizens rejected. They're domestic spies.
Are they worse than Meta? I don't know, a strong argument can be made that both organizations are very harmful and there's no point in trying to rank which is worse.
Not much worse. I would wager that governments around the world buy data from data brokers and from Meta to be processed with Palantir to target journalists, protesters, political opponents, and random innocent people inadvertently between deliberate intention and sketchy AI correlation without real evidence.
