I'd think that the Apple MacBook supply chain, for better or worse, is about the best and most widely-inspected platform.

A potential downside might be that you're limited to macOS or Linux only.

They're still assembled in China... says so on the bottom of mine.

Right, but my point is they’re likely the least worst option, since they have a pretty tightly-controlled supply chain and I can’t think of any viable laptops fully manufactured and assembled outside of China. I don’t think that even Fujitsu laptops meet this criteria.
