"IBM and the Holocaustis a book written by Edwin Black published in 2001 which chronicles the alliance between International Business Machines Corporation and Nazi Germany. The book quotes extensively from numerous IBM and government memos and letters that describe how IBM in New York, IBM's Geneva office and Dehomag, its German subsidiary, were intimately involved in supporting Nazi oppression. The book also includes IBM's internal reports that admit that these machines made the Nazis much more efficient in their efforts. Several C-SPAN broadcasts and a 2003 documentary film "The Corporation" showed close-ups of several documents including IBM code sheets for concentration camps taken from the files of the National Archives. Prisoner Code 8 was Jew, Code 11 was Gypsy. Camp Code 001 was Auschwitz, Code 002 was Buchenwald. Status Code 5 was executed by order, code 6 was gas chamber." What about this? I don't know *anything* about foreign business policy but shouldn't IBM's involvement have been taken seriously? PRETTY EFFED UP IMO.
