Comment on New California ghost gun lawsuit takes aim at company that sells 3-D printer filament
Jiral@lemmy.world 2 weeks agoYou’ve got some point there, but doesn’t demonstrate the uselessness of the law? Unless of course they are going after every producer of technical filaments, which is like going after anyone with a lathe or a CNC machine.

No I think this is an example of the opposite - they’re not taking action against the filament industry in general just because filament could or might be used to print guns, they’re going after an individual manufacturer for allegedly marketing it specifically it to print guns.

Which makes the law useless. People with nefarious plans don’t need ads.

I don’t understand what you mean by “useless” but ok.

It is not absolute, you are free to argue in which way it is useful, in practical terms. Have you done so?
Do you think any follower of mentioned channel has difficulties finding functional FDM filaments? If not, whats the point of the law’s applucation in thus example?
