After the last post publicly by Naomi Wu being

“Ok for those of you that haven’t figured it out I got my wings clipped and they weren’t gentle about it- so there’s not going to be much posting on social media anymore and only on very specific subjects. I can leave but Kaidi can’t so we’re just going to follow the new rules and that’s that. Nothing personal if I don’t like and reply like I used to. I’ll be focusing on the store and the occasional video. Thanks for understanding, it was fun while it lasted”

Naomi Wu mentions briefly on her silencing and how she is not nearly as safe as she was before now that it’s obvious to the Chinese government her disappearance won’t cause an uproar of bad press making China look bad.

        As far as i can tell there is nothing regarding 3d printing in the article. I don’t think it is too much to ask to keep a community for 3d printing on topic. This seems to be some news piece about someone who had influence on / contributed to the 3d printing community, but as it’s not directly about 3d printing, I honestly fail to see the relevance.

          No. This is very relevant to this community. Naomi has been a great member of this community. She is an engineer and is known for bringing innovative products to market; many with her name on them.

          Furthermore she is being targeted for LGBTQ+. That makes the issue doubly relevant to all real humans.
