A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Yup. I use them as an example/case study in my classes about CSR/ESG.

Could you elaborate about this? Seems interesting, but I don't even know what does abreviatons mean :)

Corporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Social Governance. I teach English as a business school, sorry, I should have mentioned.

I choose some companies that sell similar products and have the students study and compare. This year I chose lots of companies that look great, but are also a bit off.

For example, I chose Fairphone, Murena and Teracube. They liked FP the best, but found it misleading and a little expensive. The two others were just not great hardware offers.
