You can put pressure on HP
History matters. HP must be held to account.
Why it matters
HP and Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) have played a central role in building and maintaining Israel’s government infrastructure.
HP developed and maintained the Basel biometric system, used at Israeli military checkpoints to control the movement of Palestinians through facial recognition and fingerprint scans.
Between 2009 and 2017, HP supplied hardware, servers, and IT services to the Israeli army, navy, and prison system. These technologies have been used to surveil, detain, and control Palestinian lives, including children held in military prisons.
Following the 2015 corporate split, HPE continued key contracts with the Israeli Ministry of Defense and the Israel Prison Service.
Considering their involvement, we are calling on HP and HPE to end all contracts with Israeli military and prison institutions, terminate all involvement in biometric surveillance programs in occupied territories, publicly condemn the genocide in Gaza and commit to ending their role in Israeli apartheid.
What you can do
- Comment on HP and HPE’s social media posts. Call out their role in apartheid and demand full disengagement
- Post publicly on Instagram, LinkedIn, X or Facebook. Tag HP and HPE and make it clear that complicity has consequences.
- Leave honest reviews on Google, Trustpilot, and major retailers explaining why you no longer support the brand.
- Contact tech retailers and platforms that sell HP products. Tell them HP’s complicity with apartheid makes them lose customers until action is taken.
- Share this information with colleagues, students, friends and community spaces. Public awareness builds pressure.
- If your school, university, or workplace uses HP or HPE equipment, organize for a shift to ethical alternatives.
- If you are a shareholder, divest and push for public accountability.
- If you work in procurement, education, or public institutions, raise the issue internally and recommend cutting ties.
