It is impossible to regulate any tech that has military value.
- eesmith 2y agoNuclear weapons are pretty well regulated. I'm only aware of nations - the ones who make the regulations - which have them.
- richrichie 2y agoIsrael, North Korea, India, Pakistan and Iran did not bother about NPT. KSA most likely has nukes as well. Japan can assemble one fairly quickly. We also have international treaties for chemical and biological weapons. But big countries are known to engage in things like pathogen gain of function research.
- eesmith 2y agoTreaties are not regulations. You might just as well drop the "military" from your statement. We've got world-wide regulations on CFCs but people break then, because producing CFCs has value.
