HP is not on your shopping list!
HP provides technology to support apartheid
HP profits from apartheid.
This boycott covers more than computers and printers! Calculators, cameras, phones, speakers, headphones
and microphones, watches, and projectors are all produced by HP. In fact, if it’s electronic, be sure to check
the label. Also watch out for LED
lighting and replacement bulbs for many applications, including auto
dashboards.
If you already own an HP printer, there are other companies
that offer ink cartridges. Check here
for the list: http://www.globalexchange.org/economicactivism/hp/alternatives
If you own a business, HP offers software, servers, networking,
security, and all kinds of integrated applications and hardware. If you hire a consultant to help design a
customized or integrated system of any kind, ask them what companies they
represent. HP is not on your list!

“HP is involved in several contracts that directly violate
international law and violate Palestinians’ human rights. HP has developed and
maintained the Basel System, which is used at checkpoints deep inside occupied
territory to restrict and control Palestinian freedom of movement—in their own
land. In other contracts with the Israeli government, military and settlements,
HP is aiding and abetting international law violations and systems of
segregation.” More information and a
petition are available here: http://org.salsalabs.com/o/703/p/dia/action/public/?action_KEY=11587
