Printer Subscription Radicalization
Our HP printer hasn’t been working for a month and every manner of troubleshooting, resets, changing ink cartridges, didn’t seem to work. After calling HP, they said the debit card on file had expired so they manually disabled our printer. In unrelated news, I’m now radicalized
A social media post describes an HP printer that was remotely disabled because the debit card on file expired. The punchline is that this absurd subscription-based restriction has made the speaker “radicalized,” expressing exaggerated anger at corporate control and planned obsolescence. It is used as a reaction to frustrating, exploitative or unnecessarily paywalled technology.
