The general lack of safety considerations in DIY equipment designs is the main reason my attitude has turned against DIY biology. If DIYers are unwilling to follow what are basic, simple design lessons that have been learned the hard way over many decades of engineering practice, then it's easy for me to imagine that similar attitudes will exist when it comes to performing the experiments themselves. Probably what will eventually turn public opinion against DIY biology is not the release of "frankenstein bugs" that the press sensationalizes but instead will be the little fires and electrocutions that will occur here and there as a result of the proliferation of ignorant equipment designs.
