First tool ban is here! A new law was just signed in New York that requires blueprint blocking technology on every CNC machine, laser cutter, lathe and 3D printer. This affects everyone who makes, builds or fixes things. This isn’t a firearms law. It’s a manufacturing law. And they buried it in the budget because they knew exactly what it was.

      Meh, “Goodbye to IP” would be a good thing, lol. But of course, the corpos and businesses would be able to buy back their privacy. I.e., this ban and the scanning of 3D prints would be used to oppress the proletariat, to prevent our liberation specifically, as all States do. Intellectual property really has nothing to do with it.

      given the situation it is not good… ameriturds may never reach their full pontential… we got a dum dum legacy so, fuck IP but yet we ain’t got no fucking leverage and turdherd is going to go along with it like they always do. I knew the department of homeland security was just a fascist front. I remember 9/11 people ran wild… no one thought and they had no gawd damn framework. We are gettin dumber everyday. It is crazy paying attention and getting older. There is no war but the class war.
