But my only request is can we start off with the second story?

Oh, no.

Please.

shit everything's going wrong for savage right now are you okay he died he go he left okay he uh he was so unhappy about starting with the second story that he left savage just rage quit man i know

Yep.

Well, the story is California Attorney General Rob Bonta and San Francisco City Attorney David Chu have launched a new legal assault on free speech by filing a complaint on February 6th in San Francisco Superior Court against the Gatalog Foundation, Control Pew, and individuals Alexander Holliday, a.k.a.

Control Pew, and Matt LaRossiere, our good friend, also Fudbusters.

and John Illick, known online as Ivan the Troll.

The suit targets the distribution of digital files, computer code, and instructions for 3D printing firearms and certain firearm accessories, claiming violations of California civil code, as well as the state's broad unfair competition law.

What the actual fuck?

First of all, those guys are all in Florida, and California just says, hey, you know what?

California is the law of the land, and Bob, I'd like to open it up to you first.

I agree.

Well, the core allegation is that the catalog and related entities make available over 150 designs for lethal firearms and prohibited firearms accessories via websites such as the catalog and ControlView.com, which link to file sharing platforms such as Odyssey.

Prosecutors even boasted that investigators downloaded files from a San Francisco IP address and allegedly built a functioning Glock-style handgun.

but what the complaint really attacks is information.

So here's the thing.

So our friends, Alex and Matt and Ivan, the troll now have to defend this, right?

Like they don't really have an option.

right it is a good thing that matt's a lawyer but only a fool would take himself as a client so matt's got to pay lawyers like i highly doubt matt's going to be the one doing this i reached out not to ask questions or anything just to be like hey man you doing okay and yeah he's doing okay um like this the uh what was i telling people today oh yeah the process is the punishment
