It is a little creepy that someone sitting on a computor controls your car.

Which is more creepy:

someone sitting at a computer with the ability to control your car

OR

someone sitting at a computer controlling a flying drone loaded with bombs (half a world away)

If the technology exists, man will use it for both good and bad........any way to make a $.

(please I am not trying define what is good or bad by these examples)

Given the diversity of the human species, there is no “normal” human genome sequence. We are all mutants.

Think about all the fun of speculating something that has never happened.

You should be more creeped out by the fact that a well motivated hacker can access your bank account online and take all your money.
