I've seen a guy not lose half of his hand thanks to a sawstop. The tech is good. Most of SawStop's patents have also expired, and SawStop has agreed to make the key aspects that are technically still patented open to the public by the effective date of the law.

This shit is a no-brainer and even a 5 second Google search blows up her whole narrative on this instantly. Loser shit.

sawstop is a lawsuit happy patent troll that is pushing this regulation so that every saw maker operating in the US has to pay them a licensing fee.

I read they are also offering their patent to other table saw producers if this passes.
