Maybe EPSON does not know how to update their printer's firmware. Maybe google noticed a botnet of EPSON printer trying to knock them down. Or a poorly setup of uPnP/network that helps penetrate (THEIR) networks... Maybe they just shut down the printers because nothing else can be done to suppress the threat. Maybe they don't publicized it because : 1) this is called illegal penetration of someone else system (hacking...) and is a penal offense in many countries 2) it would give IoT a bad name (Google's kind of prospective beneficial market) 3) it would be illegal for them/very costly to give the information (libel, NDA...) 4) there is NO solutions... This is pure speculation, because since I don't think google throw their printer in the trash, no one can go to their office and check if they are actually throwing away some EPSON printers.
