If anything this shows that capitalisms are poor systems in which to run non-profit-driven enterprises. If you're on of those kooks who insists profit is the only form of social good, then I guess I salute you for having such an excellent filter bubble.

Congratulations on proving once again that communism does not work, although the experiment wasn't really necessary. The world does not run on flower power. Surprising that this would take place in a biology forum, when biology itself does not work in this way.
For a nice review of how this has all happened before, refer to Hackers by Steven Levy. The divergence between "let's all share!" and "we need to be secret and backstab the others because our intellectual property has to win" is also due to hit diybio groups in the future.
BTW, I easily have six figures invested in biohacking from my own pocket. So-called open source projects are not free, they are often paid for knowingly or unknowingly by corporations or universities (via salaried time of the inventors, or physical resources).From: Kristina Hathaway <kris...@biocurious.org>
