In this scenario they would quite likely grant Palantir-GOV an exception to do whatever was necessary to give them a leg up no matter how indiscriminate or discriminating it were, but also stipulate that this is not to be shared with other nation states, except those the GOV okays.

If a person repeatedly says they are going to close a door, walks over to the door, grabs the handle, and begins to pull it closed... Is it really outside the realm of possibility that they may, in fact, close the door?

Sure. But they’re showing you the front door being closed and aren’t letting you in that there is a back door they’re not telling you about which they intend to keep open. Politicians may shake ands and kiss babies, but they're total "killers" and not the nice people looking after you or their constituents as people think.
