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.
In the USA it’s easier to buy an ar-15 than configuring a multi material 3d printer to print a fidget spinner
And btw if someone really needs to 3d print a weapon they would CNC a receiver from a metal block using a $500 AliExpress contraption rather than making a single use plastic thingy that will probably amputate your fingers at first shot
