Why do these dumb ass CEO's keep admitting this type of stuff in interviews? Don't tell us your evil plans. No one is going to hear this and be more eager to buy your products. They're so proud of coming up with ways to screw customers that they just can't help themselves. They have to let everyone know. I don't get it.

Because that interview is for investors. He's looking out for the shares price, not his customers. We can always buy other products, like Canon or Epson. It's too bad because HP printers are the best, but not enough to let us be robbed like other brands.

HP printers and the software with them sucks ass. Never again. Bought a brother laser printer and shit just works without any bullshit.

HP printers are the best

No. Not by any metric.
