There’s a fair amount of waste involved in 3D printing (support structures for example), as well as expertise needed to figure out tolerances and quirks of an individual printer. There’s also an argument that we need improvements in 3D printing that would allow us to use metal (sintering) instead of plastic (extruding or UV exposure) both for sustainability and structural reasons.
I’d agree that 3D printing has a much higher potential than it currently is used for, but let’s not pretend it’s a cure-all for consumerism.
Relevant part of the article - they’re not going near AWS or the entertainment/filming side of things, just the retail side it looks like.
Even if Amazon loses every part of a lawsuit like this it won’t materially affect their bottom line, so the headline seems like clickbait to me.
