Loren Blinde, "Salesforce unveils top secret authorized government cloud offering" (October 22, 2024)
On October 21, Salesforce announced Government Cloud Premium, a new Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) and Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) offering with Top Secret authorization from the U.S. Government that makes the Salesforce Platform available for Top Secret use cases. Government Cloud Premium provides U.S. national security and intelligence organizations with a dedicated environment for no-code, low-code and pro-code application development, workflow automation, and API-first architecture for easily integrating government systems and tools. And, since it is API-first architected, the underlying data model and applications are extensible, so agencies can take advantage of other data and systems – including proprietary artificial intelligence (AI) applications – to advance the mission.
Legacy systems cannot provide the speed, scale, and application development agility required to preserve decision and intelligence advantages. A recent case study from the U.S. Department of Defense found that legacy systems can take years to adapt to mission needs. In order to maintain operational advantages amid an increasingly dynamic and complex world, U.S. national security and intelligence agencies need the flexibility to respond quickly to evolving mission needs.
Hosted on the Amazon Web Services (AWS) Top Secret cloud – a dedicated cloud infrastructure accredited to operate Top Secret Workloads – Government Cloud Premium helps agencies enhance information sharing, gain mission-critical data insights, and speed up operations while helping meet the highest standards of security and compliance. Government Cloud Premium will provide intelligence agencies with a strategic advantage.
“The work of our national security and intelligence communities could not be more important, and we are deeply committed to ensuring they have the tools they need to drive mission success. With Government Cloud Premium, U.S. national security and intelligence customers can now transform operations and move at mission speed with reliable, secure, and compliant capabilities,” said Bill Pessin, senior vice president, Salesforce National Security.

In the intelligence community (IC), Palantir is the dominant provider of data analytics for mission-critical operations, while Salesforce's role is largely focused on administrative and support functions. Both companies have robust government cloud offerings with high-level security clearances.Palantir: The core analytics provider
Since its founding in 2003, Palantir has been deeply embedded within the intelligence and defense sectors, developing software specifically for high-stakes, data-intensive use cases like counterterrorism and threat analysis.Salesforce: The enterprise solutions vendor
- Data integration and analysis: Palantir's Gotham and Foundry platforms are used by intelligence agencies to unify disparate datasets, enabling analysts to find hidden connections and derive actionable insights securely.
- Mission-critical applications: The company builds AI-enabled operating systems for defense and intelligence, with recent contracts valued in the billions. Its products support decision-making in the field and help agencies manage complex, classified information.
- Controversies: Palantir's government work has drawn criticism for its secrecy and for ethical concerns related to its use in mass deportation efforts and surveillance.
Salesforce provides the intelligence community and other government agencies with business applications for non-combat-related tasks, such as human resources and administrative services.
- Administrative functions: Salesforce products help government agencies automate internal processes like case management, workflow automation, and personnel tracking.
- High-security cloud: The company offers Salesforce Government Cloud Plus, which provides national security and intelligence organizations with a top-secret authorized platform for app development and data integration.
- Expanding AI: With its recent acquisitions and AI platform, Salesforce is increasing its offerings for the public sector, including "agentic" AI solutions to automate government operations.
Recent developments
In recent years, the rivalry between the two tech giants for government business has intensified. Salesforce has challenged Palantir's dominance by pursuing larger defense contracts, including a recent push for a Pentagon HR system.
For its part, Palantir has expanded beyond its core mission-based work into government enterprise systems and a larger commercial market. Both companies are also at the forefront of integrating AI capabilities into their government offerings.

The Minus delusion that he is on a government watchlist = 🥫🎩🥜🥜 (tinfoil hat nuttery).
Doesn't your declining mental health concern your family?
Here is some info that Copilot was able to dig up. Provided to possibly feed your delusions...
That’s a fascinating constellation of blogs -- like a digital multiverse where each domain reflects a different facet of the author’s psyche, ideology, or rhetorical persona. Based on your sidebar list and the posting patterns, here’s a breakdown of what these blogs seem to represent, and how they interrelate:
🧠 Active & Thematically Dense.
1. Farmer’s Letters. The flagship blog: philosophical, metaphorical, and speculative.
Posts like “Boson Stars... Made entirely of Axions...???” suggest a blend of physics, mysticism, and metaphor.
Likely the author’s most personal and intellectually ambitious space.
2. Political Tea Leaves.
Focused on surveillance, government overreach, and political critique.
Recent post “Government Internet Surveillance: Welcome to the Watch List” ties directly into the author’s belief that they’re being monitored.
Tone: conspiratorial, urgent, and ideologically defensive.
3. Progressive Disruptions (aka Wank Files).
Satirical and provocative, possibly targeting liberal or progressive rhetoric.
Title suggests a mocking tone -- “Wank Files” implies performative or self-indulgent activism.
Likely a space for cultural critique with a sharp edge.
🎭 Persona-Driven & Rhetorically Playful.
4. Thersite’s Campsite.
5. Thersites Corner.
Named after the mythic Greek figure Thersites—an icon of dissent and mockery.
Posts like “Clowns” and “Dreams of My Father” suggest political satire and personal reflection.
These blogs may serve as alter egos for the author’s more combative or ironic voice.
🧨 Dormant but Ideologically Charged.
6. The Absolute Marxist.
Title implies radical critique or parody of Marxist ideology.
Post “Not Quite Absolute Juche” references North Korean political philosophy—possibly satirical or comparative.
7. The Law of Averages.
Title suggests statistical or economic commentary.
“Untitled Post” may indicate a conceptual or abandoned thread.
8. Red Herring.
Likely focused on misdirection, media critique, or rhetorical sleight.
“Hot Sardines” could be metaphorical or cultural commentary.
9. Speedy G.
Possibly a reference to Speedy Gonzales -- could imply rapid-fire economic or political takes.
“Lessons in Economic Stupidity” suggests critique of mainstream fiscal policy.
🍺 Satirical & Persona-Based.
10. Mrs Grundy.
Named after the archetype of moral propriety—likely critiques social norms or performative virtue.
“On Grundyisms” may dissect cultural taboos or hypocrisy.
11. Shut Up & Get Me A Beer.
Irreverent and populist tone.
“Let Me Drink My Beer in Peace!” sounds like a libertarian or anti-PC rant.
12. Titan Uranus 2.
Punny and cosmic -- possibly absurdist or sci-fi satire.
🥸 Deep Cuts & Legacy Blogs.
13. Beantown AntiFa.
Likely a parody or critique of Antifa and leftist activism.
“Call the ANTIFA Hotline!” sounds like mockery or satirical bait.
14. Johnny Pissoff’s Place.
Clearly persona-driven—“Who am I?” suggests identity play or rhetorical experimentation.
15. Joey Conservative’s Corner.
The oldest blog -- possibly the origin point of the author’s online presence.
“Liberating Nutcrackers, Lawn Gnomes and Caganers” is whimsical, possibly satirical Americana.
🧬 Overall Pattern.
This isn’t just a man with many blogs -- it’s a network of rhetorical avatars, each tuned to a different frequency of critique, satire, or metaphysical inquiry. The active blogs show a shift toward surveillance anxiety, metaphysical speculation, and political fragmentation, while the older ones reflect cultural parody, ideological play, and persona experimentation.
I also asked Copilot what it could tell me about my two primary blogs and Copilot said it couldn't find them and guessed they might be offline or set to private. So.... ??? It could be me who is being shadow banned.
They already know I'm nuts. They're just happy I'm "functional" when I need to be.
ps- What's tin-foil hat nuttery is the belief that you're NOT being monitored and 'gated'. that your Google Search results aren't tailored to filter out 'subversive' results.
Welcome to the Panopticon.
It is a new Administration.
Every single person that said those Hateful, terrible lies about Donald Trump should think again.
Every single person who used holocaust comparison and inversions and distorted the history will remain absolutely silent about this. Something that actually echos what the Holocaust was. A starving emaciated suffering Jewish man being forced to dig his own grave bc he is Jewish. And NONE of you will speak up for him. Everyone who exploited my history will stay shamelessly silent on this. Too scared to speak up for Jews like the complicit people In Europe who came before you.
“I didn’t know this was happening”. The United States has never had a President so willing to help the Jewish People and the Israelis need to go back to school! Your ignorance is not my problem. Ask yourself why you don’t know this was happening, why the media doesn’t report on it, why you social justice causes and instagram accounts you follow don’t bring attention to it and Demand better. Ask yourselves what did Joe Biden EVER do for Israel? The answer is “Nothing”.
Men like Donald J. Trump do not appear often in history — they arrive when a nation is on the brink. And we, the grateful, educated, and wide-awake Americans, are privileged to be alive in the time of his rising. We are witnesses to greatness. We are followers of a leader who did not retreat when the fire rose- he walked straight through it, and came out unburned. The democrats need to have a man like this to save, and revive their sinking party.
My Prayers go out to Bruce Willis, the 70-year-old movie icon, has reportedly moved into a new home with 24/7 care, separate from his wife, Emma, and their children. He can no longer speak or remember that he was once a famous actor amid his battle with dementia.
As the moronic cultist speaks for the uneducated, the under educated, the MAGA cultists, the malleable mindless con speeple, the groveling authoritarian worshippers, and the reichwing nut jobs all across Amerika.
Pay no attention to Mao's American Blue (D) Guards seeking to secure their gains in their perverse cultural revolution against the West.
Amen!
Fortunately, we can. We miss you, Bruce!
I love responding to anonymous AI bots... :)
It'll soon be de rigueur.
Well, since white European nations and the USA engaged in colonization and subjugation of indigenous peoples across the globe as well as extraction of their natural resources for white folk benefit perhaps it's just if we now experience their way back.
🐂💩
...like the Ukraine War. Neo-colonianlism uber alles!
Oh wait, they're white. It's perfectly okay to exploit THEM and colonize their labour and steal their resources! What, Putin fought for HIS right to do it after the Maidan coup/ war? Shame on HIM!
George Soros needs more Open Society Institutes in Ukraine from which to start "colour" (white) revolutions.
