If a purchase isn't ownership, piracy isn't theft.

My husband was shopping for a new printer. He saw one that was considerably cheaper and considered it. It was from Sam’s Club. He read the details and realized that you were only allowed to use the printer as long as you had an ink subscription from them as soon as you cancel or discontinue the ink subscription theydisable your printer. The printer only functions with a Wi-Fi connection and thus Sam’s Club, or whatever the printer manufacturer is is able to disable it remotely! We went with a different printer. That was more expensive, but did not have this ridiculous stipulation.
