Personal ownership was so pre-2020s anyways.

I can spend $800 on something I can use for years and resell, gift, or repurpose. Or, I can instead spend $180 annually under the threat of my data being destroyed if I stop giving into the extortion. Easy choice, really. /s

Don’t worry. It won’t be long before possession of an unregistered 3D printer becomes a crime, too.

Very good point. Planting evidence of a crime is itself a crime. /joke
