One has a Constitutional amendment. The other doesn't. Also, gun owners are better organized than content consumers or technologists.

The vast majority of use cases of Kodi would be covered by the 1st amendment.

In recent decades even the most frivolous copyright claims supersedes the 1st amendment in the eyes of both the courts and corporations. I imagine if they were invented today, the xerox, tape-recorder or printing-press would have a very hard time.

But you are right, consumers and technologist have near zero clout.

There's no constitutional amendment protecting gun manufacturers from being sued. Only a law.

Along with precedent and logical thinking.
