New Study Looks At The Potential Carcinogenicity Of 3D Printing
We’ve all heard stories of the dangers of 3D printing, with fires from runaway hot ends or dodgy heated build plates being the main hazards. But what about the particulates? Can they actually…

Wow who would have thunk the chemicals getting dumped into the environment by the fucking oil industries could be dangerouse. There are a million 3d printing materials u can use and have decent extraction and ur fine. Guy u need to be scared 3d printers might give the consumer too much power, cant have foss technology winning out.
FDM plastic often uses PLA, which is derived from corn starch, not petroleum.
So this is just propaganda.
According to authors [CheolHong Lim] and [DongSeok Seo], the research covered in this paper was undertaken because of reports of rare cancers among Korean STEM teachers, particularly those who used 3D printers in their curricula. It was thought that only long-term, continued exposure to the particulates generated by 3D printers could potentially be hazardous and that PLA was less likely to be hazardous than ABS. The study was designed to assess the potential carcinogenicity of both ABS and PLA particulates under conditions similar to what could be expected in an educational setting.
You have a bad understanding of science.
Plastic is a very broad term for materials made from synthetic polymers
...Do you not think corn can be turned into a carcinogen?
What do you do with all the time you save by writing 'u' instead of 'you'? You must live a life of leisure and be early for every event!

Slow down, spend the half-second, and use all the right letters.
