Washington State Bill Seeks to Add Firearms Detection to 3D Printers [pdf]

Two things that I simultaneously believe:

* Gun ownership should be much more tightly regulated in the US.

* Requiring 3D printers to block production of firearms is worse than useless.

How would that even work from a technological perspective? If it did work, why would 3d printer jailbreaks not be the immediate result? I would use jailbroken firmware on principal.

Felons and certified-insaned should be banned from firearms for life. OK, ex-felon can still have a muzzle-loading musket, here in USA.

3-D firmware restriction? Good luck with that. Open-source 3-D printer software makes this next to impossible.

This seems like an actually impossible goal
