I don't understand why people are protesting. If you entered the country illegally, why are you surprised that they're kicking you out? In some countries, the punishment is far worse, but in the U.S., they just deport you and send you back to your home country. To me, that seems like a good deal. Many immigrants did it the right way, so it's not fair for those who didn't to get away with illegally entering the country. Palantir is a terrible company, though.
