    New laws in California and New York might stop people from 3D printing guns

    It absolutely, positively, will not do that. If someone wants to print a gun, no legislation is going to stop them. It could at best, slow them down by maybe an hour, as they find, download and install different firmware for their printer.

    If you want to prevent people from printing guns, you’ll need a different tactic, because that won’t do it.
