Dehomag / 德霍梅格
Dehomag / 德霍梅格 is the German Hollerith-machine company at the center of 133. IBM与纳粹：为什么普通人不应赞美鸡贼主义. The episode describes it as the German-facing subsidiary through which IBM and [[ThomasJWatson|Thomas J. Watson]] supplied, customized, and maintained punched-card systems for [[NaziGermany|Nazi Germany]].
The source treats Dehomag as more than a foreign affiliate. Its local identity helped IBM preserve access under Nazi rule, while IBM’s control helped keep the German operation inside a transnational business system. That structure makes Dehomag the episode’s clearest institutional case for [[CorporateComplicityWithAuthoritarianism|corporate complicity with authoritarianism]] and [[DataEnabledPersecution|data-enabled persecution]].
