Facebook moves to stop sharing of 3D gun blueprints
San Francisco : Facebook on Thursday said it was moving to prevent the sharing of blueprints for 3D-printed guns on the social network, which violates its rules on regulated goods.
“Sharing instructions on how to manufacture firearms using 3D printers or CNC milling machines is not allowed under our Community Standards,” a Facebook spokesman said in response to an AFP inquiry. “In line with our policies, we are removing this content from Facebook.”The social network added it was working out the range of website links or gun-printing content that will be removed. Banning blueprints or instructions for 3D-printed guns is in line with the social network’s rules on regulated goods.
