My partner bought an HP printer/scanner once. I was setting it up and the thing required me to accept data sharing with Google and Facebook. Sorry, no you may not share the things I print with Google and Facebook. What the fuck. This is a printer I paid for, not a god damn website. I returned it the next day and bought the dumbest laser jet printer I could find. It’s been 3 years and hasn’t run out of ink yet. No need for a damn ink subscription either.
