True enough.
I wonder how well all of it will be managed.
The military aspect of it is troublesome, also what governments will be tempted to do with them when they can see a political avantage and think up new ways to do things to people who would otherwise be normal and going about their business and not causing any harm.

Maybe it's just the inner conspiracy theorist lurking within, but an old fellow I knew once said "things always change, not necessarily for the better".
It resonates with me and I pray for good people to be able to influence things sufficiently
