Anyone who has the skills to create a novel bioweapon has the skills to recreate lots of ones we have already.
Any physics teacher should know the theory for constructing a nuclear bomb. Should we be controlling that knowledge too?
What about flight simulators? Don't want a load of people knowing how to fly.
This isn't computer science, the hard bit is getting the materials and equipment, not the knowledge.

Maybe not the best example, since that knowledge is some of the most highly controlled in the world. But to mirror the point I made in a different post, the difficult part of making a nuclear bomb is not finding the theory behind like Little Boy. It's making an entire industry to generate HEU, etc.
- sccvcxv 3mo agoTheres a term in economics for this - its called cost. That bozo baq should actually go ahead and write out the costs and then he will quickly realise he has no bloody idea what hes talking about. Another deluded bozo.
- nradov 3mo agoThe knowledge of how to build a crude gun type nuclear bomb was published in open literature decades ago. This is no longer a secret.
- compass_copium 3mo agoThere is a lot of highly classified knowledge about nuclear weapons that has been deduced and published in open literature. That information is still treated as secret, restricted and controlled as much as possible by the US government
