    I genuienly struggle to think of a kind of economic thing that better qualifies as a public utility.

    Completely agree that this kind of technology, with such broad and immense ongoing, as well as potential implications, cannot be allowed to be directed by the whims of wealthy capitalist conmen rent seekers.
