    The right response would be to discontinue sending ink, not disable the printer and preventing them from using the ink they already paid for.

      The share holders disagree since that’s an unprofitable opinion.

      No, because they charge a subscription per number of pages you print. Yes, even when you have physical possession of the ink. It’s like going to the store to get something printed, only from the comfort of your own home!

      they send out those oversized cartridges in advance of you needing them, and before subcription costs have ‘paid’ for them.
