When I think of biohacking, I also think first of the people who implant magnets into their fingertips and RFID tags into their thumbs. I think about the folks that make their own prosthetic limbs with additive volume printers. I think about the blind folks with artificial retinas, and the deaf folks with artificial cochleas. I think about people who have had cataract surgery that walk around all day with near-black filters, to see what the world looks like in UV, or infrared. I think about the people that wore vibrating compass belts, and the people who wore prism goggles. I think about Newton sticking knitting needles in his eye sockets. A bit later, I think about people who synth their own custom peptide chains, and the people who try to CRISPR/CAS9 their own DNA. Maybe also the people who make designer drugs in the quest for the ultimate legal high or the ultimate undetectable sport doping. Taking medications developed by someone else, that have not gone through FDA approval, doesn't even register on the radar.
