Personally I have mixed feelings about the article and I am leaning towards a negative viewpoint but, I'd personally like to know more about how members of the community feel especially @chironex because they mention your most recent experiment as if it was some crackpot biohacker when it obviously wasn't

The article's definitely written with a negative attitude and is clearly trying to paint the whole community with a single brush. It's an unfortunate trend I've seen lately on a lot of tech & science related news sites, writing to appeal to fear of technology instead of just reporting on it.
