Malware threat from third-party cartridges nothing compared to threat to HP's bottom line

    And they’re fuming because they can’t force this down the throat of every “bad investments”. Not yet anyway.

      But they’re really trying with HP+ printers that come with a 3 month trial of Instant Ink. And it’s not like you lose the ability to use 3rd party cartridges, because those HP+ printers already come locked down from factory. Those HP+ printers also have extra REQUIREMENTS: HP Account and internet connection.

      Imagine if you needed internet connection and some account to control your lights. Oh, Philips Hue changed their ToS, so now you do.
