Ethical Considerations of CRISPR Gene Editing

Based on the readings related to Bio-Cybersecurity and CRISPR gene editing, there are some possible ethical considerations, including challenges to human safety, the risk for exploitation, privacy concerns, or unwanted mutations and side effects. I think gene editing and new bio-security technology are interesting and valuable; however, I do not think it should be used in everyday small situations. If we use it, we should use it as research and not resort to it in medical cases that are easily fixed. Too much curiosity isn’t always the best; it can lead to a big downfall.
