The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

The much-needed modernization of the U.S. Army's battlefield communications network being undertaken by Anduril, Palantir (PLTR.O), opens new tab and others is rife with "fundamental security" problems and vulnerabilities, and should be treated as a "very high risk," according to a recent internal Army memo.

The two Silicon Valley companies, led by allies of U.S. President Donald Trump, have gained access to the Pentagon's lucrative flow of contracts on the promise of quickly providing less expensive and more sophisticated weapons than the Pentagon's longstanding arms providers.


No doubt there will be a press release from the Big House claiming this is fake news.
