RE:”The media is creating a Streisand Effect here, no one would have cared about these blueprints without them and some activist judges making a big brouhaha over them.”

I dont recall that term, sounds right.

Wika says:

The Streisand effect is a phenomenon whereby an attempt to hide, remove, or censor a piece of information has the unintended consequence of publicizing the information more widely, usually facilitated by the Internet.

My grandmother always said the banned books are the most popular.

Bet doing that would attract a visit by the FBI.

They're too busy looking for Russians under Trump's bed.

omg the zip gun mfg instructions are still public on wiki, they are trying to trap ideas and force them back where they came.

Not really. Yellow cake isn't that hard to make, some idiot on youtube did the entire synthesis with common and household chemcals. Enriching it? Different matter.

What about beryllium? Manufacturing explosive lenses? Individuals are to small to worry about if they know how.

I tend to go along with the little bear in the toilet paper commercial:

"Just because you can doesn't mean you should."

And, yes, I support both the 1st and 2nd Amendments. But some discretion is required.

It might be a little tough to source the 2.2 Kg of Pu239 without getting scorched.

I remember years ago when almost every college area bookstore had THE ANARCHIST’S COOKBOOK for sale. This is no different except it is on line.

Manufacturing a firearm for personal use [pistol, rifle, shotgun] is not and has never been illegal under Federal law.

That would be the ultimate infringement.

And, yes, I support both the 1st and 2nd Amendments. But some discretion is required.

Discretion regarding the second should be in the form of "If you cannot be trusted to be armed, you should not be running around loose".

[Honest Nigerian]

your line of thinking has a lot to recommend itself. Thanks for the great idea.
(Sure as heck hope there isn’t any illegal content, or porno in those files. That would be a kick in the nutz.)

Nope. I recall the first time I saw the export-a-crypto-system-sig on the cypherpunks mailing list. I try not to think about how long that has been. It was my signature file for years.

Excellent!

Bravo!

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Anarchist_Cookbook

Available on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, etc.

The Anarchist Cookbook, first published in 1971,[1] is a book that contains instructions for the manufacture of explosives, rudimentary telecommunications phreaking devices, and related weapons, as well as instructions for home manufacturing of illicit drugs, including LSD. It was written by William Powell at the apex of the counterculture era in order to protest against United States involvement in the Vietnam War.[2] Powell converted to Anglicanism in 1976, and later attempted to have the book removed from circulation, but the copyright belonged to the publisher who continued circulation until the company was acquired in 1991. Its legality has been questioned in several jurisdictions.

There is a certain amount of truth to that, but not enough space to hold all the psychos which the liberals turned loose on us when the closed down most of the nut houses and funny farms in the 1960s and 1970s.

[backwoods-engineer]

Y’all can’t stop the signal.

Seems pretty dangerous to use a plastic firearm, unless you have a specific need.
