| schestowitz | This site's "subnet" has always been a sham because, as I covered in techrights, they only hired FOSS-hostile people as staff writers. Not even now can I name as a decent writer and the output reflects that. In recent years they were not writing as much and some writers pretty much vanished; it's better that way. | Nov 17 09:11 |

| schestowitz | " | Nov 18 18:16 |
| schestowitz | I'm guessing Marc is right about IBM at least having plausible deniability. The Nazis would have little reason to declare their full intentions and IBM would have little reason to ask. | Nov 18 18:16 |
| schestowitz | However, from what I've seen, Nazi intentions toward Jews were clear nearly from the start. I'm not precisely certain of the timing, but my impression is that a Jewish exodus began about the time the Nazis came to power; Jews knew, even if many were in denial. So the Nazis likely did know, even if IBM and many Germans did not. | Nov 18 18:16 |

| schestowitz | To little extent - yes. However, most Jews were taken out of their homes - for example in Germany in case of German Jews - with the info that they will live elsewhere, not that they're going to die horrible deaths in nazi german deathcamps located somewhere in conquered Poland or in Bergen-Belsen in Germany. It's really not that simple as most people would like it to be. I know some good history. Partly because I'm polish, partly | Nov 18 18:17 |

| schestowitz | This site's "subnet" has always been a sham because, as I covered in techrights, they only hired FOSS-hostile people as staff writers. Not even now can I name as a decent writer and the output reflects that. In recent years they were not writing as much and some writers pretty much vanished; it's better that way. | Nov 17 09:11 |

| schestowitz | However, from what I've seen, Nazi intentions toward Jews were clear nearly from the start. I'm not precisely certain of the timing, but my impression is that a Jewish exodus began about the time the Nazis came to power; Jews knew, even if many were in denial.
