I wouldn't have any problems with the government having the ability to, if they went through the effort, know that a certain paper came from my printer. Much ado about nothing?

Actually, most of the ones mentioned are low to medium end inkjet photo printers.
My $150 HP printer is specifically mentioned as not having this embeded, but some of the competitive products that I looked at are. While it does a nice job on photographs, there is no chance that anyone is going to mistake a $100 bill printed on my printer for the real thing. Higher end printers were specificly excluded.
Guess I need to run around he neighborhood pulling down all of those "Bush sucks" posters that I printed before the secret service comes knocking on my door.
