But without going into a big debate here,…

Although this comment is like 5 years old.... IBM had plenty of knowledge that its machines were being used to facilitate rounding up populations and exterminating them. There’s an extensive quote out there from the head of the German subsidiary talking about how glorious their work is, to rid Germany and Europe of…
