Not really. Hindsight is always 20/20. We know what happened in Nazi Germany as history. When IBM started helping Germany in 1933, no one knew what Hitler’s regime would turn into. I use Siemens PLCs and HMIs in my work. Siemens sold the same PLCs and HMIs to Iran for their centrifuge program. One day, after Iran uses their first nuclear weapon on someone, will someone write an article on how Siemens helped Iran build their bomb that obliterated a city? Probably.

But, the thing about free markets is that business is business and a customer is a customer. Its only in places where the free market has failed that you see flags being pulled off the market because some group demands it.
