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.

And palantirs caused unhealthy obsession in people (Pippin, for example) who touched them, just like the internet.
