Does anyone know a list of safe printers (can be second hand postscript laser printers) that do not phone home, embed invisible yellow dot patterns for unique identification and so forth?
- Shared404 6y ago> embed invisible yellow dot patterns... Whoa, is this a thing? I know gov surveillance is in depth, but wow. I'd love to read more, is there a good place to read about this?
- wtallis 6y agoSee https://www.eff.org/issues/printers https://www.eff.org/issues/printers Color laser printers can't be trusted. Color inkjet printers probably can't either. Networked printers should not be granted internet access. The printer vendor is your enemy, not an ally.
- Shared404 6y agoThanks for the link. I've never trusted printer vendors (or any vendors to be honest.), and I don't give printers inet access, but the yellow dots are news to me.
