Right, do you see how this reads like conspiracy nonsense.

We make a claim, claim inherently says there's no way to prove it, so just trust us.

Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence.

Condensed quote below.

“ According to Eaton’s own release, Palantir’s role would include… most critically—“secure erasure of digital footprints””

Again, and I cannot stress this enough, that is from their own press release.

So you say “where are the receipts?”. And their press release explicitly says “we are bringing in this company to erase receipts”. To which you respond “where are the receipts”.

To echo your statement, do you see how this might appear as willful misunderstanding to an outside observer?

Capability of doing something isn't proof of doing something.

I'm on team "something's fucky" but it's still not proof.
