If I read that article correctly, it says that the subject is open for comments on the ATF website.
Here is the proposed regulation that was submitted March 28. I didn’t see a link for comments.

Here is another link that should allow comments.

Oh, ain't that America - sending comments (basically begging) a non-legislative entity for permission to keep something without being thrown in prison. I don't think that's how this "representative republic" was supposed to work, but the BATF (and IRS, and....) shouldn't have that kind of authority.
Constructive possession?
Seriously, this will be "enforced" in the same way 922(r) is enforced, which is almost never. If someone is involved in some other event such as planning a mass casualty attack, then they'd enforce it. Just getting caught with a single bump stock at your local range goofing around? They might be arrested, but I seriously doubt they'd ever be indicted.
My students were having a discussion about gun control, 16-18 year olds. I showed them several videos of 3d printing and home milling of aluminum and polymer uppers, lowers, magazines, and frames. I then asked them how easy was it to buy a joint in school and compare that to making and purchasing a DIY firearm if there was enough profit. They figured out that pretty quick that it would just create crime.

It sounds like it will be awhile before any ban could ever take place.
