I'm reminded of IBM's dealings with the Nazis.
Everyone’s reminder that the number tattoos were the victim’s immutable IBM database IDs!
Horrible ethics. Excellent database query optimization.
Well, I did have a drink, but now it's everywhere.
It's a real stretch to blame NVIDIA for someone buying their hardware off of a shelf and using it. It'd be like blaming Sony if it was found that child abuse rings prefer to use their cameras.
That was pretty much IBM's excuse, if I recall correctly. Then it turned out IBM execs were well aware of who was buying their equipment and for what purpose…
Yeah this really is an on Nvidia, it's like someone buying a TV and then watching torture or something on it.
