Cody Rutledge Wilson (born January 31, 1988) is an American law student, self-proclaimed crypto-anarchist and a market anarchist. He is the founder and director of Defense Distributed, a non-profit organization that develops and publishes open source gun designs, so-called "Wiki Weapons," suitable for 3D printing.
Wilson is a second year law student at The University of Texas School of Law in Austin, Texas. He describes himself as being influenced by a wide array of anti-state and libertarian political thinkers.
In 2012, Wilson and associates as Defense Distributed started the Wiki Weapon Project to raise funds for designing a 3D printable gun. Wilson is to date the only spokesperson on behalf of the organization, of which he describes himself as a "co-founder" and "director."
Brian Doherty described Wilson as "more than just a gun guy," and also states that Wilson probably "is right about how it has to end: the people will have the power" in Reason magazine.
Wilson has been listed as one of Danger Room's "The 15 Most Dangerous People in the World" on Wired.com.
