What’s scary? That they just announced it? What makes you think every major military power hasn’t already secretly done this?
I haven;t a clue as to what anyone else may have done.
The possibility that ANYONE would be so foolish as to create such a pandora’s box never occured to me
It's one thing when a military has the capability.
It's a whole different story when we start thinking about the ramifications of a mentally-disturbed university PhD student potentially having the ability to create something that might kill millions if released.
Or a small group of Muslim students who suddenly decide to go jihadi.
