nope.
Partly because some of how it works is a corporate secret. Largely because you don't need to.
But that doesn't make you low tech.
Of course. It's the same question as, "Should we use the results of Nazi medical research?" It's a difficult ethical question. Once the harm has been done, can we use the "tainted fruits"?
I would say yeah because either people died just because nazi are evil, or because nazi's are evil and providing the world with information that could save others.
And I'm not sure my opinion would change if I were sick with something that might be cured with that research. Because I could just as easily die from something else that could not. Or something I or my doctor missed.
You know you could also be struck and killed by a meteor. You wouldn't even have to get out of bed. Sorry i like "coulda" logic like that. Its usually got holes in it.
Genetics explains why you look like your father, and if you don't, why you should.
