Yeah because it's either a socipath billionaire or a dusty garage hobbyist. Nothing in between.

At the very least, the garage hobbyist has more chance to be a more ethical person.

The FDA is monitoring the corporations that are working on this sort of thing. As is mentioned in the title of this thread.
