Anything can be used maliciously. But it's way harder to make an bioweapon an bioweapon out of crispr than it's worth. And it's not like you'd have any particular advantage from using crispr, I guess you could load a bunch targeting some essential gene into an AAV and spray it on people but it's probably easier just to wait for the flu virus to mutate and do its thing.

Or even more specific, eg, I want to create a virus that only targets one person (maybe.. A President of a country?) Scary stuff when this stuff starts becoming realized.
