We overrate our understanding of the biochemical basis of life. Compositing these the 480 proteins spectifed by the genes in this article wont get life- you'll need the biomachines these proteins specify plus the sugars and fats they manufacture. I give it another century.
At least I am a "materialist" and this this is possible. Some people believe there is a deity or magic life substance required in addition to chemistry. I don't.
Last year Robert Silverberg published The Alien Years with a similar subplot. Aliens zapped the planet with EMP rendering all electricity driven devices inoperable and plunging us into medieval times.
We see that on the internet- unpopular groups have their say, so that everyone can use it openly and cheaply. The German Government doesn't get what freedom is about if this article is true.
The ecological 60s/70s were anti-tech. The Reagan 80s/Tech 90s were more pro-tech. Probably each generation has to look at both sides at least once in its cycle.
I've abandoned print newspapers, many magazines, many bills and tickets for their net versions. Books haven't yet become as low-price as other e-media or libraries. I wich they would.
SGI product is responsible for the resurrection of F/X movie industry after dieing in the mid-1980s. Too bad a bad business strategy leads to contraction.
You can't trademark something with significant and widespread use. However it may be cheaper to settle with the a_sh_l_ than to fight it in the international courts.

Seattle is the birthplace of the coffee house revolution, grunge music, slackers and other
Gen-X habits.
Some evil foreign body is going to tell us (the US) how to behave, raping our resources in the process.
(Not that I believe it.)
Business fills the loss of control by governements.
Business are more greedy- exploit workers and the environment.
(This is a reason, not that I believe it.)
Some people will lose their jobs and businesses because it is cheaper to buy that stuff or service from abroad.

Its a matter of thinner chip circuitry and lower
voltage. The techs are working on it.
