It might interest people to know that there is a real company called Palantir Technologies, Inc., set up in 2004. Its website can be found here:

http://www.palantir.com/

Among its products are 'Palantir Government' and 'Palantir Finance'.

It also hosts 'Palantir Night Live', a speaker series in which it brings in 'prominent speakers from the technical world, the national security community, and various other domains to engage in small forums with friends of Palantir on topics of significance and common interest':

I'm very sure that this would not have happened if Fëanor had still been CEO!
