> In a country where you can buy assault rifles with minimal background checks, people worry about addresses being available because someone might be able to look up the address to kill them with a drone and a home made bomb.

Drones and IUDs may be less traceable than guns and offer even less risk to the user. Currently if you're going to use a gun, you basically have to be suicidal or care zero about the consequences.

But that also brings up a good point -- people worry about addresses being available because someone might be able to use a gun and kill them as well. Or hell, just their fists.

Doxxing is dangerous, is this not the case in Europe as well?

Doxing remains dangerous in Europe, the posters just trying to score cheap points.
Remember that time a bunch of Scandinavian bikers got hold of some Carl Gustovs and used them to explode a rivals building among other things?

Gotta watch out for those intra-uterine devices - they can take out a city block. ;)

Oops! Thanks.

Depends. If you’re really looking to avoid detection then 3d printing a gun is a lot easier than a drone.
