I can see it now: just get the enemy to breathe in a cloud of nanobots, or have the bots enter their body through an open cut that they make, and the enemy’s body is yours: no violence needed.
We live in a terrifying time because there’s just no way to dodge this sort of stuff unless you have the EMP tech, since a Hazmat suit is unsustainable to don long-term.
This is different from poison, how?
Nanobots, son. It’s hi-tech and sexy, don’t question it.
The thought process skips a few steps steps the same way as the idea to terraform mars when we can’t even do that to earth.
I mean, we’re doing a great job terraforming earth, just not for us.
It’s way more expensive!
