  • I’d love to know all of that. I just don’t ever trust a private corporation to safeguard my highly personal and unique DNA information from:

    • a foreign scammer looking to make a buck
    • my government looking to close a case
    • a foreign government looking for kompromat
    • a health care company looking for reasons to deny coverage.

    It’s too easy for a company to skimp on staff and digital security and then say “we’re soooo sowwwy, have 3 months of identity fraud protection on us” if they find a breach.



  • After looking at the upgrade options (and shopping with your wallet, not mine), I’d say buy a MK4 kit. You’re in a fairly unique position that you aren’t taking apart a working printer; you’re getting a new printer with 2023 electronics and motors for a discount.

    However, if sinking that kind of cash isn’t wise for you right now, then build what you have! Or, pick up the MK3S+ upgrade kit for $50USD. MK3S+ is a reliable workhorse, and mine won’t be retired anytime soon. It still prints PETG as well or better than my X1C, if a little slower.

    Good luck and have fun with it!
