澳大利亚联邦政府福利机构、税务部门及儿童保育工作者的个人信息，是可能最终流入美国数据分析公司Palantir监控软件的一批敏感数据之一，而负责管理这些信息的部门对此甚至毫不知情。
he personal information of Centrelink customers, taxpayers and childcare workers is among a trove of sensitive data that may be ending up in Palantir's surveillance software in Australia, without the departments responsible for the information even knowing about it.
正如《卫报澳大利亚版》9月所报道，Palantir的软件被澳大利亚刑事情报委员会（ACIC）用作多机构欺诈融合特别工作组的一部分，该工作组于2022年成立，旨在打击针对国家残疾保险计划、儿童保育和福利等政府支付项目的欺诈行为。
As Guardian Australia reported in September Palantir's software is used by the Australian Criminal Intelligence Commission (ACIC) as part of the multi-agency fraud fusion taskforce, which was established in 2022 with the goal of targeting fraud in government payments from the national disability insurance scheme, childcare and welfare.
根据信息自由请求公布的新文件显示，至少10个政府机构与该特别工作组共享敏感数据的范围，这些数据可能被输入Palantir的软件。
New documents, released under freedom of information requests, reveal the extent to which at least 10 government agencies share sensitive data with the taskforce, which could be fed into Palantir's software.
这家备受争议的美国科技公司由与唐纳德·特朗普结盟的亿万富翁彼得·蒂尔共同创立，其客户包括以色列军队和美国移民与海关执法局（ICE），它们利用该软件分析海量数据。
The controversial US tech company, co-founded by the Donald Trump-aligned billionaire Peter Thiel has clients including the Israeli military and US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) that use the software to analyse vast amounts of data.
尽管该公司坚称无法访问客户输入软件的数据，但绿党领袖大卫·舒布里奇一直呼吁禁止Palantir与澳大利亚政府签订合同。
While the company has insisted it has no access to the data clients enter into the software, the Greens leader, David Shoebridge, has led calls for a ban on Palantir contracts with the Australian government.
4月，该公司在X平台发布的一份22点宣言中暗示某些文化低人一等，一名英国议员将其描述为“超级反派的胡言乱语”。舒布里奇表示，鉴于该数据挖掘软件被以色列国防军和美国移民与海关执法局使用，Palantir不应接触澳大利亚数据。
In April, the company implied some cultures were inferior to others in a 22-point manifesto posted on X and described by one UK MP as the "ramblings of a supervillain". Shoebridge has said Palantir should not be near Australian data given how the data mining software is used by the IDF and ICE.
澳大利亚政府自5月以来已在Palantir合同上花费近8000万澳元一个数据共享网络该工作组由国家残疾保险局（NDIA）和澳大利亚服务部牵头。根据根据信息自由法（FoI）发布的文件，该情报项目——被称为“欺诈融合中心”——由澳大利亚犯罪情报委员会（ACIC）领导，并汇集了各机构持有的、可能与工作组工作相关的“大量信息、数据和情报”。
The Australian government has spent nearly $80m on Palantir contracts since May A data-sharing network The taskforce is headed up by the National Disability Insurance Agency (NDIA) and Services Australia. The intelligence program – known as the fraud fusion centre – is led by the ACIC, and brings in "large volumes of information, data and intelligence" held by agencies that could be relevant to the taskforce work, according to the documents released under FoI.
由独立研究员兼数据科学家Gabrielle Josling博士发起的信息自由请求显示，至少有10个联邦机构正在与ACIC共享数据——这些数据最终可能被输入委员会的Palantir软件中。
The FoI requests, undertaken by Dr Gabrielle Josling, an independent researcher and data scientist, showed at least 10 federal agencies were sharing data with the ACIC – data that could ultimately be put in Palantir's software by the commission.
教育部的文件显示，ACIC正在从以下来源“收集犯罪情报，并分析和交叉比对数据”：教育部。国家残疾保险局。澳大利亚服务部。国家残疾保险计划质量与保障委员会。澳大利亚税务局。澳大利亚联邦警察。澳大利亚证券与投资委员会（ASIC）。澳大利亚交易报告分析中心。卫生部。就业与职场关系部。
Documents from the Department of Education show the ACIC is "collecting criminal intelligence and analysing and crossmatching data" from sources including: The education department. The NDIA. Services Australia. The NDIS Quality Safeguards Commission. The Australian Taxation Office. Australian federal police. The Australian Securities and Investments Commission (Asic). The Australian Transaction Reports and Analysis Centre. The health department. The Department of Employment and Workplace Relations.
澳大利亚服务部授权ACIC获取的个人信息包括：姓名、出生日期、身份证明信息、地址、电话号码、Centrelink（澳大利亚社会福利服务机构）申请或复核记录、详细收入和资产明细、雇主信息、银行账户信息以及该机构持有的“监控材料”。
The personal information authorised by Services Australia to be obtained by the ACIC includes names, date of birth, information about proof of ID, addresses, telephone numbers, Centrelink claims or reviews, itemised income and asset details, employer information, bank account information and "surveillance material" held by the agency.
收集的数据由欺诈融合中心保管，虽然隐私影响评估指出ACIC不受《隐私法》约束，但该机构的协议规定，其“在与有效履行其法定职能合理一致的范围内”，依照澳大利亚隐私原则行事。
The collected data is held by the fraud fusion centre and, while a privacy impact assessment noted that the ACIC is not subject to the Privacy Act, the agency's protocols state it acts in accordance with the Australian privacy principles "wherever reasonably consistent with the effective performance of its statutory functions".
澳大利亚服务部表示，向澳大利亚犯罪情报委员会（ACIC）的每一次披露都是逐案考量的。截至目前本财年已有两次披露，而2025-26财年为21次，2024-25财年为47次。
Services Australia said each disclosure to the ACIC was considered on a case-by-case basis. There had been two disclosures in the financial year to date, compared with 21 in 2025-26 and 47 in 2024-25.
澳大利亚税务局（ATO）的文件未披露该机构提供数据的具体范围，但指出根据法律规定，税号不能被提供。该局在2022年11月至2026年7月期间共作出758次披露，其中包括向国家残疾保险局（NDIA）披露376次，向澳大利亚犯罪情报委员会披露42次。
The ATO's documents do not reveal the extent of the data provided by the agency but state that tax file numbers cannot be provided under law. It made 758 disclosures between November 2022 and July 2026, including 376 to the NDIA and 42 to the ACIC.
澳大利亚税务局一名发言人告诉《卫报澳大利亚版》，纳税人信息是在根据谅解备忘录条款、税务局情报披露治理计划以及《税务管理法》，在“依法能够”披露的情况下，作为专案组工作的一部分进行披露的。
A spokesperson for the ATO told Guardian Australia the taxpayer information was disclosed where it was "lawfully able" to do so under the terms of the memorandum of understanding as part of the taskforce, the ATO's intelligence disclosure governance plan and the Tax Administration Act.
联邦教育部拒绝发布其向专案组提供了何种数据的信息，但文件显示，相关数据与儿童保育补贴计划有关。
The federal education department has withheld releasing information about what data it has provided to the taskforce but the documents state it is data related to the childcare subsidy scheme.
该部门一名发言人拒绝就“详细的运作性信息共享安排”置评，并将关于帕兰蒂尔（Palantir）使用情况的问题转交澳大利亚犯罪情报委员会。
A spokesperson for the department refused to comment on "detailed operational information-sharing arrangements" and directed questions about Palantir use to the ACIC.
澳大利亚犯罪情报委员会表示，数据处理受制于与提供数据机构的协议，且帕兰蒂尔“是一套分析工具的一部分，用于对特定案件进行分析，以协助合作机构破坏欺诈政府项目的严重有组织犯罪网络”。
The ACIC said data handling is subject to agreements with the agency supplying the data, and that Palantir was "part of a suite of analytical tools to undertake analysis on specific cases to assist partner agencies to disrupt serious organised crime networks defrauding government programs".
该机构未回应《卫报澳大利亚版》关于其他联邦机构是否被告知其提供的数据被纳入帕兰蒂尔软件的提问。澳大利亚税务局和澳大利亚联邦福利局（Centrelink）均不知情帕兰蒂尔是否被使用。
The agency did not respond to questions from Guardian Australia on whether other federal agencies were informed if the data provided was ingested into Palantir's software. Neither the ATO nor Centrelink were aware if Palantir was used.
“另一机构使用软件的问题应由该机构回答，任何关于澳大利亚犯罪情报委员会根据联邦融合专案组（FFT）获取的数据的使用问题，最好直接向澳大利亚犯罪情报委员会询问，”澳大利亚税务局一名发言人表示。“指南”取代伦理框架文件显示，2024年工作组各机构签署的谅解备忘录最初要求工作组制定一套伦理与人工监督框架，以管控共享信息。该框架被描述为“FFT有效风险管理的重要组成部分”。本应对伦理风险进行评估并记录在风险登记册上。
"The use of software by another agency is a question for that agency, and any questions relating to ACIC use of data obtained under the FFT are best directed to the ACIC," an ATO spokesperson said. 'Guide' replaced ethics framework The documents reveal that the memorandum of understanding in 2024 between taskforce agencies originally required the taskforce to develop an ethics and human oversight framework governing the control of the information shared. It was described as "an important part of effective risk management for the FFT". Ethical risks were supposed to be assessed and recorded on a risks.
但2025年9月公布的通信显示，有关方面认定该流程“太难实施”，因此该框架在去年10月变成了“伦理指南”。
But correspondence released from September 2025 reveals that it was determined that the process was "too difficult to implement" and the framework instead became an "ethics guide" in October last year.
乔斯林在提交给澳大利亚国家审计署对工作组审查的意见书中表示，新模式放弃了对工作组进行明确评估和审查的要求。一套用于评估和监控工作组绩效的框架也未曾制定。
In a submission to the Australian National Audit Office's review into the taskforce, Josling said the new model abandoned requirements for defined assessments and reviews of the taskforce. A framework for evaluating and monitoring the performance of the taskforce was also not developed.
乔斯林在意见书中说：“一个多机构工作组需要一种方式，从数据质量问题、数据匹配局限、无成效的移交、新出现的风险以及治理薄弱环节中吸取教训。”
"A multi-agency taskforce needs a way to learn from data quality problems, data matching limitations, unproductive referrals, emerging risks, and weaknesses in governance," Josling said in the submission.
企业和政府面临压力，要求停止使用Palantir的服务，科尔斯和西太平洋银行据报均决定不再与该公司续约。英国政府也面临压力，要求其终止与Palantir的合同，包括与国民医疗服务体系（NHS）的合同。
Companies and governments have faced pressure to stop using Palantir, with both Coles and Westpac reportedly deciding against renewing their contracts with the firm. The UK government has also faced pressure to drop its contracts with Palantir including a contract with the NHS.
Palantir坚称，它无法访问客户录入其软件的数据。一名发言人此前为该公司与澳大利亚政府的合同进行了辩护，称它只是一家软件公司。
Palantir has maintained that it does not have access to the data clients enter into its software. A spokesperson has previously defended the company's contracts with the Australian government, saying it is just a software company.
发言人说：“我们致力于支持澳大利亚政府机构应对复杂挑战，包括严重金融犯罪和欺诈。”
"We are committed to supporting Australian government agencies in tackling complex challenges, including serious financial crime and fraud," they said.
本文于2026年11月16日修正。早期版本误称加布里埃勒·乔斯林博士在意见书中呼吁进行审查——实际上，该意见书是提交给审查的。
This story was amended on 16 November 2026. An earlier version mistakenly referred to Dr Gabrielle Josling calling for a review in a submission - in fact, the submission was to the review.
