ince the beginning of time, humanіty has pursued immortalіty and eternal youth. For the first time in our history we can see a future in which we can overcome all dіseases, aging and death with the help of technology. We’ll stop beіng humans to become transhumanѕ.

Biohacking is a way of implementing transhumanism. Basically, the goal of biohacking is to overcome our physical and intellectual limits by implanting sensors, chips, DNA alterations and other mechanisms. And as with computer hackers, there are biohackers who follow ethical standards and others who do not.

The ethical biohacking supports these practices as long as they don’t pose a danger to our health. But in the opposite side of ethics are the grinders. The grinders are “careless” biohackers willing to risk their lives with dangerous surgeries to make modifications and implant devices to improve their capabilities.

The concept of biohacker is similar to computer hacker, but applied to biology. A biohacker argues that the technology applied to the healing and enhancement of our bodies should be available to everyone, not just to scientists or pharmaceutical companies.

The first hackers were seen as anti-system criminals who carried out vandal acts, until we discovered that there are also hackers who build security softwares and data protection systems. Most grinders see themselves as a return to the early ages of medicine, when doctors were simple “amateurs” who self-medicated or performed surgeries and experiments in their own bodies to test new treatments.

In the not-too-distant future, as biohacking progresses and improves, it’s likely that we’ll lose our humanity as we know it. Are you ready for it?

So long as the individual is bio hacking his or her own body, I wouldn't see a problem with it.
