In a similar vein, I'm curious what thoughts hackers have about Monsanto.

  Being able to destroy a farmer for unknowingly growing Monsanto patented crops (via contamination of an otherwise non Monsanto field) seems really fucking lousy.

    I agree, and have no love for Monsanto, but from what I recall the huge class-action lawsuit brought against them was recently thrown out for, among other things, lack of evidence that that was in fact happening to a significant degree.

  Nothing but vitriol. The company should not exist.

  They're the Microsoft of food: they create things, they have the potential to help the world, but their legal practices can be pretty shitty. I've got nothing but hope for the future of genetically modified food, I just hope that Monsanto can learn to relax a bit more.
