more fiber laser safety concerns

"Stupid is as stupid does" applies here. I don't think there's much one can do, just like it's no longer possible to prevent people from blinding each other with laser pointers, or prevent drones from colliding with helicopters or planes.

You're running down a road that has no pick-up service... as IR said, there's nothing you can do. It will have zero effect on industry... even if the average Joe can own a 40W CO@ or fiber laser at home, it won't have any effect on the 4kW system in someone's work bay.

At least, with a fiber laser, it's intended to cut stuff, so there's no excuse for not following safety protocols; a laser pointer, on the other hand, causes me to duck and cover when the presenter turns to speak to the audience and still has his thumb on the trigger.

I've got green lasers labeled as less than 1 mW, but you can see the diffracted light coming off the air molecules in the room, even with the room lights ON
