Interview: Cody Wilson, 3D Gun Maker Dropped by Shopify
Friday a merchant of 3-D gun blueprints and gun mills posted on Twitter that his online business had been disabled, without contact by the host of his site, Shopify.
“We were a Plus Merchant, which means that was a higher duty of care because of the amount of money we brought in, and I suspect there was third party interference that caused this, said Cody R. Wilson, Civil Rights activist and owner of defcad.com

Wilson said he suspects that it is a third party that caused the reaction to deny him service, based on past experiences with Gun Control groups who lobbied for Shopify to drop him last year.
“Ill have to check the statute of limitation on this to see if I can sue. I would like to see in Discovery what caused this. That is the only way I think I will find out why they dropped me,” Wilson said. “I have a lot of lawsuits right now,” he said. “Well see.”
Wilson’s name has made a recent revival in the news in July, after he won a federal lawsuit against the US State Department, regaining his rights to distribute his plans for 3D Guns.
According to Wired,”In June, the Department of Justice quietly offered Wilson a settlement to end a lawsuit he and a group of co-plaintiffs have pursued since 2015 against the United States government. Wilson and his team of lawyers focused their legal argument on a free speech claim: They pointed out that by forbidding Wilson from posting his 3-D-printable data, the State Department was not only violating his right to bear arms but his right to freely share information. By blurring the line between a gun and a digital file, Wilson had also successfully blurred the lines between the Second Amendment and the First.”
The Washington Post reported Wilson’s mission is to,”Legalize the distribution of weapon-design files that allow Americans to 3-D-print firearms at home, avoiding layers of federal and state gun-control policies like permits and background checks.”
He says providing that to them is his First Amendment to do so. “We have always been making guns, there are security norms. I am sorry people are just waking up to the rights we have had. I do not argue against our security norm. This is a scientific inquiry,” Wilson said to Fox News.
“The Standard is that even the most inflammatory speech is protected by the first amendment unless it is going to produce imminent harm,” Wilson said.

WHY DID SHOPIFY DROP HIM?
Wilson said he suspects that it is a third party that caused the reaction to deny him service, based on past experiences with Gun Control groups who lobbied for Shopify to drop him last year.
“Ill have to check the statute of limitation on this to see if I can sue. I would like to see in discovery what caused this. That is the only way I think I will find out why they dropped me,” Wilson said. “I have a lot of Law Suits right now,” he said.
Wilson told Big League Politics,”There is something called Tortious Interference of Contract.”
As he regained his rights from the Federal Courts, he is being threatened at the state level. “I seem to replace one lawsuit for four more. But I believe in what I am doing. This is a culture war and with technology, it is getting away from them,” Wilson said.
“New Jersey is really ahead of squshing rights, but I think the Texas case will be the important one to watch,” he told Big League Politics.
