Serious question... Is Epson any better? Canon? Brother?
when it comes to commercial involvement in the ongoing Israeli occupation of Palestine? yes. https://www.whoprofits.org/ lets you search to see if a company has been exposed for these behaviors. HP/HPE is on the official BDS (boycott, divestment, and sanctions) list for their ongoing actions.
when it comes to exploitation, involvement in other international conflicts, and generally being icons of the late stage capitalist society we have become, no promises.
I might be stupid, but I don't quite understand the search feature on the website. What am I supposed to put in the "Free Text" field? And why do I have to pick an involvement category, can't I search all of them at once?
Brother.
When they eventually enshittify, I'll be sad.
Epson and Brother seem fine. Canon too, but why get a Canon when you can get a Brother or Epson.
