Palantir challenges London police software block over 'ethics' claims

Palantir challenges London police software block over 'ethics' claims

Police plans to use new software could stay delayed while the legal case continues. Palantir challenged a decision at London's High Court on Thursday after the mayor's office refused approval for a Metropolitan Police agreement, saying procurement rules were not followed, while the company says its ethics were wrongly considered. A trial is scheduled for January.
