What’s actually going on with Oura Ring , are they partnered with Palantir and/or DoD? Oura Ring says its data sharing applies only to Department of Defense (DoD) programs, not the general public. The company also states that consumer data is kept separate from military use, and they promise not to sell or share user data with the government unless someone is enrolled in specific DoD programs and has given explicit consent. That said, as a privacy expert, I still have serious concerns about the potential for government surveillance. So, take this as your reminder to be cautious about what information you share with Oura, or any similar device.
