In Poland during the Soviet occupation (1945-1989) people were beaten and jailed for having a copier that would be used for copying magazines and brochures

I'd argue it was a vassal state, not occupied (per se) at least from the 1950's onwards. Yes, the soviet troops did station in Poland, but the beatings were administered by other Polish citizens.

Nowadays your printer puts secret markings into everything, and Microsoft and Apple can link those to your account and IP address.

> during the Soviet occupation

Yep, things were waaay better in 1938, right?

NB: I like how [0] just ignores everything between 1918 and 2007.
