California wants to place a permanent watcher inside every 3D printer sold in the state. AB 2047 would force manufacturers to install what its authors call “firearm blocking technology,” software that inspects whatever a person tries to print and refuses to build anything a state-approved algorithm flags as a gun part. On June 30 the Senate Public Safety Committee voted the measure forward, moving a home-surveillance requirement closer to becoming California law. https://reclaimthenet.org/california-wants-a-watcher-inside-every-3d-printer
