New York Governor Kathy Hochul has publicly stated her intention to address the proliferation of 3D-printed firearms, directly responding to Cody Wilson's recent development of a tool designed to circumvent state regulations. Wilson's "Hochulization" tool aims to allow 3D printers to create firearms, a move that has drawn a firm stance from the governor.
Governor Hochul's remarks signal a proactive approach to regulating emerging firearm technologies. The situation highlights the ongoing tension between technological innovation and legislative efforts to control access to potentially dangerous weapons, particularly in light of concerns about the ease with which such firearms could be manufactured and distributed.
