Wait, let him cook...

It's worth remarking that Theil's company is named for an artifact of evil magic. It's something like a proto-Internet device, that twists people's minds through letting them communicate with fascist groomers, and allows them to observe the whole world from a distance instead of living in it as a human being. In a way Theil is just a more advanced version of the Zizians becoming "Sith Lords" Theil has just decided that being the Dark Lord is cool actually and likes everything Sauron and Sarumon stand for, he just plans to do it smarter this time.

Pretty sure the palantir were made by elves and not evil. It just so happens that Sauron currently is in control of them

Yeah there's nothing evil about the palantir inherently, just the fact that an evil demigod is currently shoving his malice through them at all times.
