One thing I’m concerned about is recording equipment leaving identifiable information without us knowing about it.

Isn’t it common knowledge? I’ve known about it for at least two decades…
BTW - you can easily work around it. Get someone else to buy your printer for you, or trade with someone who has the same printer… Now, they will still be able to match it to the printer, if they find it at your home, but other that that, you are free…
PS. Don’t use your printer to blackmail FBI or CIA. ;-)
Pro tip: If you use a pen and paper to blackmail the FBI and CIA, they can’t trace it back to you using invisible yellow dots.
They’ll still identify you by your wax seals. /s
It’d be uncouth to send blackmail without your family’s seal
It’s made to trace counterfeit money back.
That’s essentially what I wrote…?!?
There is no connection from a random printer you buy somewhere anonymous to you. They can “only” verify something was (not) printed with that printer.
No you don’t get it, if you swap paper with your cousin before printing the feds won’t have a fucking clue.
As I said - but there could be a connection. Did you use cash or a card? Some places you have a membership, or they ask if you want the receipt on your mail…
There is still no connection. How should there be one?
Feel free to believe that. 🙃 Far be it for me, to educate you…
So you just want to say things you believe and not tell others why you believe them and even dislike being asked?
If you don’t know how your credit cars ties you to a printer with a serial number, sold by a store that saves it all - then I don’t want to help you. It’s not a belief, it’s fact. I like being asked, I don’t like ignorant morons, that says stupid things and either want to pick a fight, or are truly clueless. You can decide for yourself, which category you are in… Now go troll someone else.
