So your name goes onto a list because you buy a 3d printer? This is some bullshit!

Get it shipped to relatives/friends or only buy stuff like that during holidays.

I'd rather push back against all of this illegal surveillance and regain our privacy. But since most people don't seem to care or understand why privacy is important, that's unlikely to happen. It's especially pronounced with the younger generations since they've never had any privacy, so they don't even understand what has been taken from them.
