Jacobus Lentz / 雅各布斯·伦次

Jacobus Lentz / 雅各布斯·伦次 appears in 133. IBM与纳粹:为什么普通人不应赞美鸡贼主义 as the Dutch population-registration expert whose work helped the Nazi occupation identify Jewish residents in the Netherlands. The episode contrasts his statistical competence with [[ReneCarmille|Rene Carmille]]’s sabotage in France.

The source’s point is not only personal villainy. Lentz becomes a case of expertise without moral resistance: a statistician or administrator may not need theatrical hatred to make an occupation regime more lethal when they optimize records, categories, identity cards, and retrieval systems for [[DataEnabledPersecution|data-enabled persecution]].
