Nazi connections aside (that is terrifying enough in itself), people have a right to claim damages against a company if they have been affected by a product the company has claimed is safe.

This is about a company knowingly doing the wrong thing and it doesn't matter if they are Nazis, Germans or from anywhere else. These people have a right to reparations.
