It absolutely won't do that. You know how many millions of early generation Prusa and Ender 3 printers are in the US? Many of these models have no internet connectivity whatsoever and print from SD card.

What that means is they will also try to incorporate spyware into your CAD and/or slicer software, which is even more invasive.

This is a anti-privacy bill.
