Global Chip Shortage Forces Canon to Sell Ink Without DRM

Least that's one benefit of the shortage I guess

Looking back on what my stepdad originally said about ads being a "necessary evil" (They really aren't, and I argued that to death with him) and seeing him get pissed off about printer inks containing DRM (after I had to explain to him what DRM even was to begin with), kinda makes me lol at this, because it's about damn time printer ink stopped doing bs DRM.

He'll probably be happy when I tell him the news, but I don't think he even bothers with printers anymore.

The annoying part is that they stopped doing it only because of the shortage, once the shortage goes away, I am sure they will go right back to doing it. I also facepalm anytime someone says blah anti consumer practice is a necessary evil. It's like no, it's only "necessary" to increase their profits in majority of the cases.
