      Fuck I hate this kind of comment. Not every one who disagrees with you on a company practice is a shill. In this case they even call it bullshit themselves, they are making a point about understanding what you sign up for.

        Do you read every word in every EULA you click on “agree”? Do you consult with a lawyer and experts about every little detail what it may mean? Do you actually understand and agree on everything?

        All these bullshit practices are scum. A person above has written in detail what kind of bullshit dark pattern trash companies like HP use. People accidentally signing for this ink crap is all over the internet, because it’s not fucking normal to need to read 50 pages of gibberish shit contract when you buy a fucking printer.

        And in no, no circumstances is it normal to design a service for a printer that a customer buys that lets them print only a certain number of pages and then makes the rest of the ink unusable. If nothing else, it creates waste.

        Printer companies have been using shitty practices when it comes to ink for 2 decades, HP always being the worst. This is their latest crap and way over the line. If you think this is okay, then you’re a shill and you indeed don’t need to be here. Go to some community that licks the boots of all these corporations.
