Talk about not being able to stop the signal!

DefCad.com goes dark. Judge’s order.

CodeIsFreeSpeech.com rises. With all the same downloadable and perfectly legal 3D-printable firearm plans, not subject to the restraining diktat.

What did they expect?

How many more mirrors can the grandstanding statist bastards stomp? How many more will arise?

Declan McCullagh has details.

    How many torrents serve the designs? Good luck with that.

    I’ve downloaded and archived the data from that site. Good to have, maybe I will post it back up in three years after they chase a hundred sites around the net. Everyone should equip themselves to do the same.

    They never stopped being available on torrent sites… One could download them last week, if so inclined.

    Absolutely despicable — though unsurprising. I’m glad to see that CodeIsFreeSpeech.com is up again on someone else’s servers. Thanks for the word, Pat.

    Sen. Mike Lee blocked legislation to prohibit blueprints of 3D printed guns from being posted online, and continues to argue that it’s a free speech issue. …

    On Tuesday, Sen. Bill Nelson, D-Fla., tried to pass a bill by unanimous consent that would make it illegal to intentionally publish a digital file that programs a 3D printer to make a gun.

    Lee objected, saying he was seeing the legislation for the first time and hadn’t had a chance to review it.

    “It begins with the words, ‘It shall be unlawful for any person to intentionally publish … ‘ That ought to be concerning to us, to each and everyone one of us, Democrats and Republicans alike. On that basis, I object,” he said on the Senate floor.

    Mike, your comment about CodeIsFreeSpeech went into spam. I just pulled it out (belatedly).

    I can confirm that FB is blocking the URL. It is more evidence they hate your rights.
