Re:DRM Kitty Litter: The Only Thing Stupider Than DRM Coffee by pjc50 on Tuesday December 30, 2014 @12:49PM (#8815688)
There can be no general technical solution, because it's a continual arms race of DRM and anti-DRM. As you say, it would have to be legal.

The EU did legislate against DRM in print cartridges, I believe, although I can't find a reference other than http://www.geek.com/chips/eu-bans-clever-chips-in-printer-ca.... While looking I discovered http://www.therecycler.com/posts/etira-lobbies-eu-commission... which implies they're about to break the cartridge recycling system entirely by conflating it with the WEEE electronics recycling system.
