When are the printer manufactures going to learn?

It looks like customers are going to have a choice when it comes to ink cartridge refills. Here is the story link http://www.pcworld.com/news/article/0,aid,118341,00.asp on the recent court ruling.

This article petty much says it all about the dirty tricks the printer manufactureres pull to lock in the customers. But they do it so badly, I have seen pretty easy(and smart) ways to fool the system into thinking that it got the original cartridge.

I consider these practices totally unfair who ever does this. The corporations are slowly turning into evil monsters that would do anything to get your every last penny. What next? Here are some projections:
Clothing companies will come up with things that we could only wear once
Food companies designing the food to expire more quickly to increase the sales

It seems that the corporate world is moving towards products that are short lived, use once types or products that dictate what we could do with to maximize and guarantee their survival.
