Then why did you bring other crimes up? Sorry. But you have no idea how you sound. You directly said “there are these crimes, why are we wasting laws on these other crimes” and wonder why I responded as I did.
You don’t know it’s impossible. That’s just insane to think that recognition software can tell that a person’s seatbelt is on if that there is someone at their front door with a package or a bicycle means it’s likely possible.
It literally is impossible. The only thing going to a 3d printer is a series of commands to the the various stepper motors and heating elements what to do. It would have to be capable of reversing this code to reconstruct the object being printed. A printer is not going to have enough processing power to do this if it’s even possible at all.
It doesn’t in some niche and limited capabilities. That’s like saying some hot rods don’t have to run gasoline. Sure. There are some with electric motors and they can keep up. But they have drawbacks.
It’s not a niche capability. You load the instructions onto an SD card and plug it into the printer. Every one I’ve used is capable of this and for many it’s the preferred way of operating. If you don’t know what you’re talking about just stop.
And how do you load information on that SD? Computers. Stop being a dick and acting like somewhere in the chain it can’t be checked. You won’t admit you’re wrong and it shows me you’re a fuckin idiot.
My point was their priorities are completely out of wack, and also that this law is useless and shows that they have no idea how 3d printers work so they are wasting time on this to do literally zero good. If the concern is around preventing crime, this is not the way to do it.
That’s why I’m here commenting about it for free on the internet instead of being paid to prioritize things that actually matter over ineffective bullshit.

You currently can not fully 3D print a gun
Even if you could, distinguishing a gun from everything else is impossible. This is more about people using 3D printing for right to repair

The computer it’s connected to does
A 3d printer does not have to be connected to a PC at all to function.

Once again. Two crimes can happen at the same time. Prioritizing it is the authorities job. Not yours.
