Google's "Results about you" (which you should use: myactivity.google.com/results-) alerted me that my name and address were listed on kompass.com.
I looked, and I'm listed as a "Principal" of a former employer where I never was, with my home address falsely listed as the company's.
It lists the wrong business category and website for the company.
The company went out of business years ago, years after I left.
This illustrates how accurate B2B lead generation data brokers are.

🚨 Palantir is facing renewed scrutiny over its $30M contract with ICE — but the company is doubling down on its mission.

Y Combinator founder Paul Graham criticized Palantir for building tech that powers what he called the “infrastructure of the police state.” The comments were sparked by filings revealing that ICE is working with Palantir to develop an “Immigration Lifecycle Operating System” — a tool designed to help identify deportation targets and monitor self-deportations in near real-time.

In response, Palantir’s global head of commercial, Ted Mabrey, issued a strong defense of the company’s work:
- He cited Palantir’s origins with DHS after the murder of Agent Jaime Zapata in an anti-cartel operation
- He emphasized the life-saving potential of Palantir’s software and the high stakes its engineers face
- He framed the criticism as a familiar attack on mission-driven government tech, referencing Google's Project Maven
- He reiterated the company’s values: belief in mission, resilience under scrutiny, and commitment to lawful use of technology

While Mabrey didn’t directly address Graham’s challenge to formally commit that Palantir won’t support unconstitutional practices, he noted the company has made that commitment internally and publicly “in many ways from Sunday.”

Palantir continues to recruit with a clear message — that Western democracies must not lose their technological edge and that responsible partnerships with government are essential.

What this debate highlights:
- The growing divide in tech around public sector work, especially involving surveillance and law enforcement
- The challenge of building secure tools that serve national interests while protecting civil liberties
- The reputational risks companies face when government contracts intersect with immigration and constitutional rights

At @Efani, we’re deeply aware of the tension between innovation and privacy — and this is a reminder that cybersecurity, data ethics, and constitutional accountability must evolve together.

Alright I now regret using #Firefox. Not because #Mozilla did shoot with the source code. Because its blocker doesn't protect my #privacy. I also regret reading about ADHD on my Android phone on #Chrome or even having a normal #Android phone.

Last week I read about ADHD on the web using Android's stock Chrome, now Google ads is showing me advertisements about ADHD. Down with you Google.

If anyone cares about their privacy, they should avoid #Google like #plague It's a pity still people use the services it offers including the search engine.

The #Web has become a bad and creepy place. For now I'm switching to #LibreWolf.

🚨 A new U.S. House report on DeepSeek highlights how one Chinese AI model may be quietly reshaping global AI strategy — and risking American data privacy.

The House Select Committee on the CCP has released findings on DeepSeek’s R1 model, revealing:
- $420M in funding from High-Flyer Quant, a Chinese trading firm
- Access to 10,000+ NVIDIA A100 chips via the Firefly supercomputing infrastructure
- Ties to China's surveillance ecosystem, including China Mobile
- Allegations of illegal training data use and export control circumvention
- App behavior that mimics spyware: collecting device IDs, typing cadence, and chat history

Lawmakers warn that DeepSeek:
- Functions as an open-source intelligence asset for China
- Circumvented guardrails from U.S. AI companies to accelerate its own development
- Operates under a tightly controlled tech ecosystem with deep state-linked partnerships

An OpenAI exec told the committee that DeepSeek “circumvented guardrails to extract reasoning outputs,” accelerating their model using techniques like distillation — potentially copying U.S. tech at lower cost.

Even more concerning:
- User data is routed via infrastructure tied to China Mobile
- DeepSeek does not encrypt much of its traffic
- It censors content critical of the Chinese government

🛡️ What this means:
- Export controls alone aren’t enough — the U.S. must improve early threat tracking
- Agencies should restrict procurement and usage of Chinese AI models
- More visibility and scrutiny are needed around AI supply chains and infrastructure

At Efani, we believe real AI security starts with understanding who’s behind the tools we use — and where our data ends up. This report is a wake-up call for all of us building or relying on AI systems today.
