https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gene_drive https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gene_drive Just a little time reading about this is sobering. There is certainly the potential for profound nefarious acts. However, also consider that you could have 'gene drive warfare' in which you release constructs that attempt to override the malicious ones. Ultimately, while doing something like this is within reach of most moderately talented graduate students in molecular biology (and perhaps some remarkable amateurs), it does require a fair bit of infrastructure. Doing this as a 'black ops' project would require you to get together a good deal of laboratory equipment - especially things like Sanger sequencers - and oligonucleotides that are reasonably tractable. At least for now.
