"Secretive Group" description linked to in article:

A secret society of the world’s elites co-founded by spyware billionaire Peter Thiel has been exposed by hacktivists.

Dialog is a private, invitation-only network, co-founded in 2006 by Palantir chairman Thiel and data entrepreneur Auren Hoffman.

The organisation holds off-the-record summits for powerful figures from the worlds of politics, finance, military, celebrity and tech.

Frequently compared to the Bilderberg Group and World Economic Forum, Dialog has spent two decades refusing to disclose the identity of its members and has a private website.

As much as this is a good news story, Ireland is not the UK. And Irish people would rightly be offended at the suggestion. Does this post really belong here?

It was an accident and not intended to cause offence.

Now that is commentary you probably didn't intend.

It did occur to me after I posted it. 😅

Ehh... the ownership of the hotel has links to the event. It's probably more the case that the event drew too much attention so the ghouls were getting leery of attending
