You could say that about any technology that isn't cutting edge. The problem is when something is still standard in a particular industry, then yes you do "need" them.

Ideally we'd switch to better methods, but it takes time and organized effort.

At this point the effort and time to keep physical fax machines is greater than dropping them.

A lot of fax machines are just integrated into a regular printer/scanner, which is why you can find them fairly easily

But yea a dedicated machine makes no sense now

With POTS lines getting up to $1000/month in some cases, it’s not even the equipment that’s the problem.
