If you all are talking about the "internet connection settings", (I saw nothing about cloud settings..? This is an HP product, not an apple?) ABSOLUTELY, I was AWARE of the internet settings, and they certainly peaked my interest. Before this HN debacle, I would have "agreed and signed" and moved on, without a second thought. However, they had different settings to modify so it was do able. HOWEVER-- if I may, WHY, did I purchase a product, where I can not use the features because of data usage? This to me, is one of the biggest issues with all of this data usage, now that I have learned about it. People, like me, purchase products that have these wifi and internet capabilities so that they can use them! They spend the money on these items with the internet connection qualities, for a reason. To have to limit the use of the capabilities of a product because of fear of data usage is kind of back ward thinking in my head. The printer I purchased, has some qualities to it that DO require internet connection and usage, I am going to utilize what I paid for! There are ways to connect manually etc.. and that is what I am stuck with. I lost some of the convenience by going with HN.... To be honest, when my contract IS up... I truly don't think i will renew. (even though I love you all so much!!)
