After Court Order, 3D-Printed Gun Pioneer Now Sells Pay-What-You-Want CAD Files (arstechnica.com)

Posted by msmash on from the tussle-continues dept.

CaptainDork writes: In a surprising announcement, Defense Distributed founder Cody Wilson announced Tuesday that while he would continue to comply with a federal court order forbidding him from internationally publishing CAD files of firearms, he would also begin selling copies of his 3D-printed gun files for a "suggested price" of $10 each. The files, crucially, will be transmitted to customers "on a DD-branded flash drive" in the United States and won't be available as downloads.

    What a Patriot. I'll bet he going to be protecting our freedoms real soon now.

    Actually, he pretty-much is.

    You don't see that because you're on the other side of the issue, on the side of speech you don't like.

    We often say that freedom of speech means freedom for others to say things we don't like.

    You don't like it, I get that.

    Do you believe in free speech or do you believe in suppression of speech?
