Are we sure this type of thing does not qualify as malware? How would we even opt out of tracking that happens in drivers? (because of course, all these things are never opt-in to make the most profit off of unknowing subjects)

That would be some headline: Sensitive Health Documents Leaked Through Printer Driver, or worse.

@bnijbakker @ramonita @aral Yes, it does not self-replicate. But I'd certainly classify it as malware.

@fnord @ramonita @aral
My bad, I meant "malware". Will edit.

@ramonita @aral
Just found out that basically everyone does this... Great.
