Fab research big time kudos & thanks for a poke to IBM archive from the cobwebs of memory.. endless rabbit hole in its own right but ultimately a small cabal w galaxy of pseudo names on their dime.. grrr.. from The Village Voice when it was true voice of adversarial journalism but now we have Substack & you...

Edwin Black's 2001 book titled "IBM and the Holocaust".

THE VILLAGE VOICE - The IBM Link to Auschwitz

by Edwin Black - October 8, 2002

The infamous Auschwitz tattoo began as an IBM number. And now it’s been revealed that IBM machines were actually based at the infamous concentration-camp complex.

IBM’s extensive technological support for Hitler’s conquest of Europe and genocide against the Jews was extensively documented in my book IBM and the Holocaust, published in February 2001. Last March, the Voice broke exclusive new details of a special wartime subsidiary set up in Poland by IBM’s New York headquarters, shortly after Hitler’s 1939 invasion, to help Germany automate the rape of Poland.

The new revelation of IBM technology in the Auschwitz area constitutes a final link in the chain of documentation surrounding Big Blue’s vast enterprise in Nazi-occupied Poland, supervised at first directly from its New York headquarters, and later through its Geneva office.

Of all your excellent reports, this might be the best one.

They are good schemers and liars in their grand plans and hopefully it's all reversible.
