“If buying isn’t owning, piracy isn’t stealing”

20 years ago, I got in a (friendly) public spat with Chris Anderson, who was then the editor in chief of Wired. I'd publicly noted my disappointment with glowing Wired reviews of DRM-encumbered digital devices, prompting Anderson to call me unrealistic for expecting the magazine to condemn gadgets for their DRM:

https://longtail.typepad.com/the_long_tail/2004/12/is_drm_evil.html

I replied in public, telling him that he'd misunderstood. This wasn't an issue of ideological purity – it was about good reviewing practice. Wired was telling readers to buy a product because it had features x, y and z, but at any time in the future, without warning, without recourse, the vendor could switch off any of those features:

https://memex.craphound.com/2004/12/29/cory-responds-to-wired-editor-on-drm/

I proposed that all Wired endorsements for DRM-encumbered products should come with this disclaimer:

WARNING: THIS DEVICE’S FEATURES ARE SUBJECT TO REVOCATION WITHOUT NOTICE, ACCORDING TO TERMS SET OUT IN SECRET NEGOTIATIONS. YOUR INVESTMENT IS CONTINGENT ON THE GOODWILL OF THE WORLD’S MOST PARANOID, TECHNOPHOBIC ENTERTAINMENT EXECS. THIS DEVICE AND DEVICES LIKE IT ARE TYPICALLY USED TO CHARGE YOU FOR THINGS YOU USED TO GET FOR FREE — BE SURE TO FACTOR IN THE PRICE OF BUYING ALL YOUR MEDIA OVER AND OVER AGAIN. AT NO TIME IN HISTORY HAS ANY ENTERTAINMENT COMPANY GOTTEN A SWEET DEAL LIKE THIS FROM THE ELECTRONICS PEOPLE, BUT THIS TIME THEY’RE GETTING A TOTAL WALK. HERE, PUT THIS IN YOUR MOUTH, IT’LL MUFFLE YOUR WHIMPERS.

Wired didn't take me up on this suggestion.

But I was right. The ability to change features, prices, and availability of things you've already paid for is a powerful temptation to corporations. Inkjet printers were always a sleazy business, but once these printers got directly connected to the internet, companies like HP started pushing out "security updates" that modified your printer to make it reject the third-party ink you'd paid for:

https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2020/11/ink-stained-wretches-battle-soul-digital-freedom-taking-place-inside-your-printer

Now, this scam wouldn't work if you could just put things back the way they were before the "update," which is where the DRM comes in. A thicket of IP laws make reverse-engineering DRM-encumbered products into a felony. Combine always-on network access with indiscriminate criminalization of user modification, and the enshittification will follow, as surely as night follows day.

This is the root of all the right to repair shenanigans. Sure, companies withhold access to diagnostic codes and parts, but codes can be extracted and parts can be cloned. The real teeth in blocking repair comes from the law, not the tech. The company that makes McDonald's wildly unreliable McFlurry machines makes a fortune charging franchisees to fix these eternally broken appliances. When a third party threatened this racket by reverse-engineering the DRM that blocked independent repair, they got buried in legal threats:

https://pluralistic.net/2021/04/20/euthanize-rentier-enablers/#cold-war

Everybody loves this racket. In Poland, a team of security researchers at the OhMyHack conference just presented their teardown of the anti-repair features in NEWAG Impuls locomotives. NEWAG boobytrapped their trains to try and detect if they've been independently serviced, and to respond to any unauthorized repairs by bricking themselves:

https://mamot.fr/@q3k@hackerspace.pl/111528162905209453

Poland is part of the EU, meaning that they are required to uphold the provisions of the 2001 EU Copyright Directive, including Article 6, which bans this kind of reverse-engineering. The researchers are planning to present their work again at the Chaos Communications Congress in Hamburg this month – Germany is also a party to the EUCD. The threat to researchers from presenting this work is real – but so is the threat to conferences that host them:

https://www.cnet.com/tech/services-and-software/researchers-face-legal-threats-over-sdmi-hack/

20 years ago, Chris Anderson told me that it was unrealistic to expect tech companies to refuse demands for DRM from the entertainment companies whose media they hoped to play. My argument – then and now – was that any tech company that sells you a gadget that can have its features revoked is defrauding you. You're paying for x, y and z – and if they are contractually required to remove x and y on demand, they are selling you something that you can't rely on, without making that clear to you.

But it's worse than that. When a tech company designs a device for remote, irreversible, nonconsensual downgrades, they invite both external and internal parties to demand those downgrades. Like Pavel Chekov says, a phaser on the bridge in Act I is going to go off by Act III. Selling a product that can be remotely, irreversibly, nonconsensually downgraded inevitably results in the worst person at the product-planning meeting proposing to do so. The fact that there are no penalties for doing so makes it impossible for the better people in that meeting to win the ensuing argument, leading to the moral injury of seeing a product you care about reduced to a pile of shit:

https://pluralistic.net/2023/11/25/moral-injury/#enshittification

But even if everyone at that table is a swell egg who wouldn't dream of enshittifying the product, the existence of a remote, irreversible, nonconsensual downgrade feature makes the product vulnerable to external actors who will demand that it be used. Back in 2022, Adobe informed its customers that it had lost its deal to include Pantone colors in Photoshop, Illustrator and other "software as a service" packages. As a result, users would now have to start paying a monthly fee to see their own, completed images. Fail to pay the fee and all the Pantone-coded pixels in your artwork would just show up as black:

https://pluralistic.net/2022/10/28/fade-to-black/#trust-the-process

Adobe blamed this on Pantone, and there was lots of speculation about what had happened. Had Pantone jacked up its price to Adobe, so Adobe passed the price on to its users in the hopes of embarrassing Pantone? Who knows? Who can know? That's the point: you invested in Photoshop, you spent money and time creating images with it, but you have no way to know whether or how you'll be able to access those images in the future. Those terms can change at any time, and if you don't like it, you can go fuck yourself.

These companies are all run by CEOs who got their MBAs at Darth Vader University, where the first lesson is "I have altered the deal, pray I don't alter it further." Adobe chose to design its software so it would be vulnerable to this kind of demand, and then its customers paid for that choice. Sure, Pantone are dicks, but this is Adobe's fault. They stuck a KICK ME sign to your back, and Pantone obliged.

This keeps happening and it's gonna keep happening. Last week, Playstation owners who'd bought (or "bought") Warner TV shows got messages telling them that Warner had walked away from its deal to sell videos through the Playstation store, and so all the videos they'd paid for were going to be deleted forever. They wouldn't even get refunds (to be clear, refunds would also be bullshit – when I was a bookseller, I didn't get to break into your house and steal the books I'd sold you, not even if I left some cash on your kitchen table).

Sure, Warner is an unbelievably shitty company run by the single most guillotineable executive in all of Southern California, the loathsome David Zaslav, who oversaw the merger of Warner with Discovery. Zaslav is the creep who figured out that he could make more money cancelling completed movies and TV shows and taking a tax writeoff than he stood to make by releasing them:

https://aftermath.site/there-is-no-piracy-without-ownership

Imagine putting years of your life into making a program – showing up on set at 5AM and leaving your kids to get their own breakfast, performing stunts that could maim or kill you, working 16-hour days during the acute phase of the covid pandemic and driving home in the night, only to have this absolute turd of a man delete the program before anyone could see it, forever, to get a minor tax advantage. Talk about moral injury!

But without Sony's complicity in designing a remote, irreversible, nonconsensual downgrade feature into the Playstation, Zaslav's war on art and creative workers would be limited to material that hadn't been released yet. Thanks to Sony's awful choices, David Zaslav can break into your house, steal your movies – and he doesn't even have to leave a twenty on your kitchen table.

The point here – the point I made 20 years ago to Chris Anderson – is that this is the foreseeable, inevitable result of designing devices for remote, irreversible, nonconsensual downgrades. Anyone who was paying attention should have figured that out in the GW Bush administration. Anyone who does this today? Absolute flaming garbage.

Sure, Zaslav deserves to be staked out over an anthill and slathered in high-fructose corn syrup. But save the next anthill for the Sony exec who shipped a product that would let Zaslav come into your home and rob you. That piece of shit knew what they were doing and they did it anyway. Fuck them. Sideways. With a brick.

Meanwhile, the studios keep making the case for stealing movies rather than paying for them. As Tyler James Hill wrote: "If buying isn't owning, piracy isn't stealing":

Domino Presents New Monochrome Inkjet Printer at Labelexpo Southeast Asia 2025

Domino Printing Sciences (Domino) is pleased to announce the APAC launch of its new monochrome inkjet printer, the K300, at Labelexpo Southeast Asia. Building on the success of Domino’s K600i print bar, the K300 has been developed as a compact, flexible solution for converters looking to add variable data printing capabilities to analogue printing lines.

The K300 monochrome inkjet printer will be on display at the Nilpeter stand, booth F32, at Labelexpo Southeast Asia in Bangkok, Thailand from 8th–10th May 2025. The printer will form part of a Nilpeter FA-Line 17” hybrid label printing solution, providing consistent inline overprint of serialised 2D codes. A machine vision inspection system by Domino Company Lake Image Systems will validate each code to ensure reliable scanning by retailers and consumers whilst confirming unique code serialisation.

“The industry move to 2D codes at the point of sale has led to an increase in demand for variable data printing, with many brands looking to incorporate complex 2D codes, such as QR codes powered by GS1, into their packaging and label designs,” explains Alex Mountis, Senior Product Manager at Domino. “Packaging and label converters need a versatile, reliable, and compact digital printing solution to respond to these evolving market demands. We have developed the K300 with these variable data and 2D code printing opportunities in mind.”

The K300 monochrome inkjet printer can be incorporated into analogue printing lines to customise printed labels with variable data, such as best before dates, batch codes, serialised numbers, and 2D codes. The compact size of the 600dpi high-resolution printhead – 2.1″ / 54mm – offers enhanced flexibility with regards to positioning on the line, including the opportunity to combine two print stations across the web width to enable printing of two independent codes.

Operating at high speeds up to 250m / 820′ per minute, the K300 monochrome inkjet printer has been designed to match flexographic printing speeds. This means there is no need to slow down the line when adding variable data. Domino’s industry-leading ink delivery technology, including automatic ink recirculation and degassing, helps to ensure consistent performance and excellent reliability, while reducing downtime due to maintenance. The printer has been designed to be easy to use, with intuitive setup and operation via Domino’s smart user interface.

“The K300 will open up new opportunities for converters. They can support their brand customers with variable data 2D codes, enabling supply chain traceability, anti-counterfeiting, and consumer engagement campaigns,” adds Mountis. “The versatile printer can also print variable data onto labels, cartons, and flatpack packaging as part of an inline or near-line late-stage customisation process in a manufacturing facility, lowering inventory costs and reducing waste.”

Code verification is an integral part of any effective variable data printing process. A downstream machine vision inspection system, such as the Lake Image Systems’ model showcased alongside the K300, enables converters and brands who add 2D codes and serialisation to labels and packaging to validate each printed code.

Mark Herrtage, Asia Business Development Director, Domino, concludes: “We are committed to helping our customers stay ahead in a competitive market, and are continuously working to develop new products that will help them achieve their business objectives. Collaborating with Lake Image Systems enables us to deliver innovative, complete variable data printing and code verification solutions to meet converters’ needs. We are delighted to be able to showcase an example of this collaboration, featuring the .”

Variable Data Printing

Introduction:

Variable Data Printing (VDP) is a digital printing process that allows each printed component in a single print run to be personalized. This technology is used to develop customized marketing materials that can increase brand exposure, client loyalty, and sales. We will look at the major components of variable data printing, how it works, and the significance of data in this process in this PDF file.

Variable data print:

A variable data print is a piece of printed material that incorporates personalized information such as names, photographs, QR codes, logos, and special offers. With variable data printing , each printed piece may be personalized to meet the individual's specific demands and preferences.

Digital printing is the most popular sort of variable data printing technique. This is due to the ease with which variable data may be included in a print job using digital printing. Digital printing processes, such as inkjet and laser printing, are particularly suited to variable data printing due to their intrinsic ability to transition between distinct content pieces from one piece to another without the need for manual modifications.

Key components of variable data printing:

The data source, the design template, and the printing machine are the three main components of variable data printing. The data source supplies the information necessary to personalize the printed piece, the design template sets the layout and design of the printed piece, and the printing press creates the final printed piece.

1. Data Source: This refers to the database or repository from which personalized information is sourced for inclusion in the printing process.

2. Template: A predefined template or design framework that serves as the foundational structure for the printed piece. Templates are constructed with designated areas earmarked for the incorporation of variable data.

3. Variable Data: The individualized content unique to each recipient, encompassing details such as names, addresses, specific offers, and other personalized information.

4. Digital Printing Device: Specialized digital printing apparatuses equipped to handle variable data and seamlessly merge it with the template, thus culminating in the production of customized printed materials.

5. Data Processing Software: Software applications designated for the management of variable data integration with templates. These applications are instrumental in ensuring the precision and accuracy of the printing process.

What printing type allows for variable data prints within a print job?

Variable data printing inside a print job is possible with digital printing. This is because variable data can be quickly integrated into a print job using digital printing without the requirement for additional setup or printing plates.

How Does It Work?

An innovative digital printing press extracts data from your CRM and dynamically adds material into a template using the prospect or customer information you already have. Without slowing down the printing process, hundreds of thousands of print pieces can be personalized with content relevant to each receiver.

Importance of Data in Variable Data Printing

Variable data printing relies heavily on data. The more information you have about your prospects or clients, the more tailored and successful your marketing materials will be. Businesses may design highly focused and relevant marketing efforts that resonate with their target audience by leveraging data.

Conclusion:

Variable data printing is a valuable tool for organizations that may help them produce personalized marketing materials that get results. Businesses may build highly focused and effective marketing campaigns that increase brand awareness, client loyalty, and sales by leveraging data and digital printing technologies.

Domino’s N610i digital UV inkjet label press at Labelexpo

Domino Printech India showcased the N-Series N610i 5-color digital UV inkjet label press at Labelexpo India in Greater Noida.

Ajay RaoRane, vice-president of sales – digital printing at Domino told Packaging South Asia that the Domino N610i is specifically designed for the Indian market. The N610i 5-color digital label press with inline priming can run at 50 meters per minute. It comes with Esko’s digital front end or the newly launched Sunrise digital front end, he said.

“We are happy with the response at Labelexpo. We had some good interactions with prospective clients. We met a customer who has been using our N-series and K-series presses. They liked our display of samples of shrink sleeves, in-mold labels, and laminated tubes – real jobs done by our customers. When customers and prospects are happy, we are happy,” RaoRane said.

The company recently installed the Domino K600i at Leap DigiPrint in Noida for embellishment applications such as digital varnish and digital foil, RaoRane said. Domino installed a couple of K-series machines in Delhi-NCR where the customers are into variable data printing for electronics companies. Color machines were also installed in Ahmedabad and Bhiwadi in Rajasthan.

The company has a couple of 2021 monochrome high-speed digital printing machines running at printers doing variable data printing for tax stamps, QR codes, anti-counterfeiting, security labels, and embellishments in Mumbai, Bengaluru, and Chennai, he said.

The K600i and the N-series machines are made at Domino’s Switzerland facility, he said, adding once they reach India, the machines are integrated with partners such as UV Graphics and others.

RaoRane said the growth of the Indian economy has led to high disposable income among the middle class as well as the growth of startups, malls, big retail chains and private labels, RaoRane said, adding India’s label consumption is growing and bound to grow multiple-fold.

The Importance of Batch Coding in Manufacturing

What is Batch Coding?

Batch coding is printing unique identifiers on products or their packaging. These identifiers can include:

Batch numbers: A unique code identifying a specific group of products made during the same production run.

Manufacturing dates: The date when the product was made.

Expiration dates: The date the product should be used or sold.

Serial numbers: Unique codes assigned to individual items for tracking purposes.

These codes are essential for keeping track of products as they move through the supply chain—from production to distribution and retail.

Why is Batch Coding Important?

Traceability and Recall Management

One of the most significant benefits of batch coding is its ability to help companies quickly identify products in case of a recall. If a safety issue arises—such as contamination or defects—batch codes allow manufacturers to trace affected products back to their source. This quick response helps protect consumers and maintain the company’s reputation.

Quality Control

Batch codes provide valuable information that helps manufacturers monitor product quality. By analyzing data related to specific batches, companies can spot trends or issues in their production process. For example, if multiple complaints arise about a particular batch, manufacturers can investigate and resolve any underlying problems.

Regulatory Compliance

Many industries, especially food and pharmaceuticals, are subject to strict regulations that require accurate labeling and traceability. Batch coding ensures that companies comply with these laws, reducing the risk of fines or legal issues.

Inventory Management

Effective batch coding helps businesses manage their inventory more efficiently. By tracking production and expiration dates, manufacturers can minimize waste and ensure that products are sold while they are still fresh.

Consumer Trust

Clear and accurate batch coding fosters transparency with consumers. When customers see detailed information about a product’s origin and freshness, it builds trust and confidence in the brand.

Choosing the Right Batch Coding Machine

Choosing a reliable batch coding machine manufacturer is essential to implement effective batch coding. Here are some key factors to consider when selecting a machine:

Technology Type: Different machines use various technologies such as inkjet printing, laser marking, or thermal transfer printing. Choose a technology that fits your production needs.

Speed and Efficiency: Look for machines that can print quickly without slowing down your production line.

Versatility: Select machines that can handle different materials (like plastic, glass, or cardboard) so you can use them for various products.

Ease of Use: A user-friendly interface will make it easier for your staff to operate the machine without extensive training.

Support and Maintenance: Partnering with a manufacturer like SH Hitech Solutions, known for excellent customer support and maintenance services, ensures your machine runs smoothly over time.

Conclusion

The importance of batch coding in manufacturing cannot be overstated. It plays a vital role in ensuring traceability, maintaining quality control, complying with regulations, managing inventory effectively, and building consumer trust. By investing in high-quality batch coding machines from reputable manufacturers such as SH Hitech Solutions, businesses can streamline their operations and uphold high standards in product management.

In summary, adopting effective batch coding practices not only protects your brand but also meets the expectations of today’s informed consumers who value transparency and quality assurance. As you consider enhancing your manufacturing processes, remember that effective batch coding is key to achieving operational excellence.

Inkjet technology and its impact on book printing

The book printing industry is undergoing a transformative shift, driven by the rapid adoption of inkjet technology. To shed light on the topic, Pallippuram Sajith, managing director of Impel Services (Bindwel - Stelda Group) highlighted the key factors fuelling this trend and Bindwel’s strategic role in supporting the industry’s evolution.

Game changer

The rise of digital platforms and e-commerce has shifted consumer expectations toward faster, customized printing options, fueling the demand for short-run (50-1000 copies) and micro-run (less than 50 copies) printing. This trend has become particularly relevant in India, where the print-on-demand market is projected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 27.8% between 2023 and 2031.

According to Sajith, the growing demand for inkjet technology in book printing stems from its cost-effectiveness, scalability, and ability to personalize content.

“Inkjet printing minimizes setup costs, making it an economical choice for low-volume print jobs, which is especially advantageous for publishers managing smaller print runs,” Sajith explained.

The technology enables customization, allowing publishers to create personalized books to enhance reader engagement. Its scalability allows publishers to start with small print runs and seamlessly scale up as demand increases.

Sajith noted that both large and small book printers are increasingly adopting inkjet technology because of its flexibility and efficiency.

“Large publishers are using inkjet printing to manage back catalogs and reprints more effectively, while small and medium-sized printers are leveraging the technology for print-on-demand services for niche markets and self-publishing authors,” he said.

Economics and technological advancements

Inkjet technology has made significant strides in cost reduction, quality improvement, and speed, making it a more viable alternative to traditional offset printing.

“Advancements in inkjet technology have lowered the cost per page, improved print quality to meet professional publishing standards, and increased printing speeds, enabling quicker market responses,” Sajith pointed out.
