They use the small flash inside the DRM chip in the cartridge to store the telemetry, then the e-waste companies are paid by HP to read and send to the mothership the contents of the chips sent to recycle

    Malevolent, machiavellian, sociopathic idiots.

    HP’s sooo far into the negative trustworthiness side of the number-line, that it’s a sickening-shame that no criminal-investigations happen on them, as I simply don’t believe that people that molester-nature are entirely-legal in all their doings.

    When they began requiring to have people’s credit-card-info on-file, in order to be able to USE their printers ( I read in the geek-news, sometime in the last few years ), they murdered integrity from their domain.

      when you use italics that often, they start to lose meaning and become very annoying

        While you are correct about italics, you inability to know that you are supposed to capitalize the first letter of a sentence earned you a down vote. As it is very annoying.
