# Palantir declares itself the guardian of Americans' rights

**[The Register](https://daily.dev/sources/theregister)** · 6 min read · 0 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

Palantir reported strong Q4 2025 results with 70% revenue growth to $1.41 billion, driven largely by US government contracts including ICE. CEO Alex Karp defended the company's work with ICE by claiming Palantir's software inherently protects Fourth Amendment rights through granular permissions and audit logs. This defense came amid criticism following ICE operations in Minnesota where agents violated Fourth Amendment protections according to federal court rulings. The article questions Karp's philosophical arguments as potentially serving to reassure investors rather than addressing substantive concerns about government overreach.
