HP wants you to pay up to $36/month to rent a printer that it monitors::“Never own a printer again.”

    I bet you it sends them the printer data so they can use it to train AI. It’s all in the ToC

      The article literally says they sell your data to advertising partners. You’re paying a monthly subscription to give away your personal data for something as basic as a fucking printer. If HP doesn’t die my hope in humanity will be gone.

      Imagine your thermostat sold your data so companies could solicit you with coats to buy, or your fridge sold the data of what food you have so shitty brands can beg you to buy their low quality trash because they spent half their budget on advertising.

      I’m preaching to the choir but god I hate the ever growing data broker/aggressive targeted advertising trend.
