Reports of the book that I've read say that evidence shows that IBM
continued a full business relationship with its German division, not to
provide ethical guidance either. This despite IBM's officers knowing
full well what was happening in Germany before the war and finding it
quite disturbing. There may not have been any new contracts, but the old
ones were certainly honored as just fine. It should also be noted that
Hollerith machines were built with slave labor.
