It amazes me that there are so many people who buy a printer, are offered this "pay $x a month for Y pages" type of plan, and say yes. I mean, sure, HP sucks, but they wouldn't be able to get away with such slimy business practices if there weren't so many people willing to pay.
To be clear, Google will still be storing copies of the pages they crawl. They just won't be making those copies available to end users.
