@ilovecomputers@xoxo.zone speaking of cutting up good paper to sell back as pulp...
you think you're making a joke, but this is how International Paper gets the recycled percentage they claim. they send pallets of new reams by the truckload to be broken open and rebaled as consumer waste, which is then sold back to them for a small fee.
