    I believe in evaluating a tech company based on its technological merits and customer service quality, rather than its political connections or decisions.

    However, if the boycott shifts to a political basis, specifically regarding Israel, it aligns the act of boycotting HP with the stance of supporting Hamas/Palestine, a viewpoint that is definitely not universally accepted. This politicization could render the boycott ineffective, as it then appeals only to those opposing Israel, not those focused on HP’s technological and service shortcomings.

      So anyone who is against Israel is supporting Hamas? Holy generalization, Batman!
