This is coordinated. Multiple states at the same time.

I don’t think it has anything to do with guns. Middle of the bell curve, most people aren’t using these for guns. They’re using these for right to repair. They’re using these for garage businesses. Shop businesses. Small businesses. (See: not corporate USA). Or for making/creatimg.

I’ve no doubt there are people sitting on some small slice of a tail on the bell curve who do print gun parts, but this is about corporate America.

It’s also a foot in the door dig on free and open source software.

It’s a way to block individual and small business from horning in on corporate America’s profit for a comparably tiny slice of their own.

Printing a knob to replace a broken on/off switch instead of buying a whole new item? Worse, selling that item or even just posting the pattern for free? We can’t have that.

Now, you’re bypassing my item’s proprietary system by printing…

Wait. I was able to sell threaded hand screw knobs for $5 each. Now you’re all just printing them? And the pattern is up there for free?

We need a law.
