The bill would require consumer 3D printers sold in California to include "firearm blocking technology" that checks design files before a print job can begin.
This first bill allows the state of California to regulate and oversee all 3D prints in the name of public safety.
But it CAN force your printer not to print that replacement hot glue gun trigger. After all, there’s nothing in the law that says that this software has to allow non-gun related 3D printing. The simplest way to be in compliance with this law is to simply prevent all print jobs
You understand that this makes it impossible to implement right? It’s to vauge and will damage profitability of large companies, meaning courts will gut or kill this shit.

Yeah exactly. They’re effectively banning 3d printing.
