We've debated the issues surrounding recognition but what about the blackmarket issues surrounding this? If the technology is there what is to stop criminals changing their identity for example?

The problem of going down this road is the criminal fraternity perverting a potential medical breakthrough again.

SHould you stop the scientists from developing this in a censoring sort of a way for fear of the criminal or allow them for the medical benefit and then try and outlaw them.
