The Government Wants To Control Your 3D Printer So You Don't Print Gun Parts

About this video

Colion criticizes New York Governor Kathy Hochul’s proposed legislation requiring 3D printers sold in the state to include software blocking gun-part production. He argues that this measure is technological censorship disguised as public safety, explaining that 3D printers cannot identify what they’re printing and only process measurements and shapes. Colion contends that despite New York’s extensive existing gun laws, this proposal won’t stop criminals and represents government overreach aimed at controlling tools, machines, and ideas rather than genuinely addressing safety concerns.

Key takeaways

• Colion argues that Governor Hochul’s proposal to mandate gun-blocking software on 3D printers is unworkable because printers cannot distinguish guns from other objects—they only print shapes and measurements
• He asserts that New York already has extensive gun regulations that have failed to prevent high-profile shootings, suggesting this new measure is about political appearances rather than genuine safety
• Colion frames the legislation as technological censorship and government overreach, arguing it would cripple 3D printer functionality while doing nothing to stop criminals
