IBM's Watson Also Consciously Profited From Eugenics (and This Tradition Carries on in 2020)
Summary: "GAFAM" are notorious for mass surveillance (more so than telecoms, equally bad if not worse), but many forget that IBM is facilitating rather oppressive surveillance all around the world (it builds proprietary spying systems, whereas GAFAM typically does the spying directly) and nowadays they pitch the amazing security of their 'clown computing' because they try to persuade whole states to hand over citizens' medical records (in the name of public safety or health)
