Moreover it's not implausible (I'd wager it's actually likely) that HP and other websites still relying on FTP will be pressured to actually fix their sites and switch to something more secure once Chrome drops support.

They'll switch to links which require proper cookies and referers to be set making them impossible to wget. As they always do.

Now that's so much better and more secure!
