But let's say you want to swap from Palantir to an Anthropic product.
Never mind one that's based in Bristol or Manchester.
I think it's a legitimate question to ask whether Palantir is making it so sticky.
And the odd thing about Palantir as a company is that they keep saying whenever there's any controversy in British politics, oh, you shouldn't put ideology before politics.
