Useful and timely exegesis. Turn their Tolkien thievery against them.
Ents, arise.
“I see you - the American AI Surveillance and War Company - selling your technologies to the FBI and ICE to locate ‘undesirables’, and I hear you framing it as an existential battle for Freedom. But, on behalf of myself and all true Tolkien fans, I reject your chosen name.
“You are not Palantir Technologies. You are Orthanc Inc. You are not Anduril. You are Shelob Industries, a spider on the border spinning webs of fear. Tolkien was deeply sceptical of your technology, and if he were here, he’d mobilise the Ents against you.”
