> What would stop someone from building their own printer and building and selling printers to others who don't have the skill set?
That it's easier with this skillset to build guns and sell them to criminals when the penalty is the same.
Except selling the printers as plain printers without any restrictive AI firmware or other has a thorny abstraction layer in between that and convicting someone of actually making firearms and selling direct. The printers are universal machines within the parameters of additive processes. Silly proposal this "blocking technology" written by people with no analytical thinking skills.
