Increased government surveillance of biology labs is a dangerous overreach that threatens civil liberties and scientific freedom. History shows that such measures can be easily abused to stifle dissent and innovation. Transparency and accountability should be pursued, but not at the cost of our privacy and essential freedoms.

Mandatory identity verification can lead to pervasive surveillance and the erosion of individual privacy. We should protect anonymity as a foundation of free speech.

I believe that intellectual property laws stifle innovation and restrict access to knowledge. Abolishing these laws would lead to a freer exchange of ideas and information, empowering individuals to build upon existing works for the benefit of society as a whole.
