HOWTO: The Anti-Printer

[JazzRemington]

I found this on slashdot.org a few days ago. It details how to turn a laser-printer into a paper shreader. I'm sure anyone with technical knowledge that figure a way to mod a different type of printer into a shreader.

I dont see the practical use of this unless I was working for enron.

Depends where you set it up. If you work in a corprate office (as a after-hours janitor or something) you could fuck up buissness for a bit.

But you would really fuck up a bunch of proletariat lives forever.

Because a printer doesn't work and shreads papers?

[bed_of_nails]

Lets say some poorly paid worker has to print off an important document for their boss at work. They have been working there for years now, and are still in a shit job though it is the only company hiring them.

When they cannot print this important file and are fired, it will be pretty ugly.

[Anarchist Freedom]

I doubt they would be fired. People are more rational then that.

The same people who are the bourgeoise? (I can never spell it correctly, so forgive me if I am wrong)

[rioters bloc]

so, they transfer the file to another computer and print from there

itll slow up business, but i doubt itll get them fired,

How many menial office workers do you think are really working directly for the bourgeoisie? Firing people isn't worthwhile unless it is profitable or fits another agenda.

Nixon would have pleanty of uses for this!
