      “IBM contributed to the holocaust” was a rather abstract bad thing for me until I read this thread & started to understand that it was deliberate and profitable and _crucial_ to the Nazi’s machinery of death.

      I never post political or controversial stuff... but I wanted to step out of line briefly to offer a lesser-known and very weird historical background to a news story that’s going around about a particular tech company collaborating with police on racial profiling.

      The numbers the Nazis tattooed on prisoners’ wrists were IBM identifcation codes. The IBM computers decided where people were sent. I wonder: is this the first big example of using the fence of “it’s just algorithms” to declaim personal responsibility?

      The numbers given to the registered prisoners of Auschwitz have noting to do with the IBM identification codes.

      Interesting! Any references you can point me to on how were the sequences were determined and what they were used for?

      If not no worries, I’m happy to do my own homework, but if you’ve got anything at hand it’d be appreciated.

      I’m having trouble understanding this request. One detail is wrong (the tattooed numbers were not IBM computer codes) but the rest of it is not in dispute. People had numbers inside IBM’s systems which allowed the Nazis to track & “relocate” them efficiently.

      I feel like maybe I don’t have a good perspective on it though, so if you feel like you could elaborate I’d be grateful.

      This happened in the middle of WWII. Did IBM's predecessor company know that this was being used for anything more than keeping track of mass movements of people out of war zones to be brought back later? Did IBM know what was really going on?
