> Do not buy into their doomerism based marketing in all the instances we have seen the agents were not a plague unleashed upon mankind, they just gained access to some systems they shouldn't have in order to achieve some objectives that were given to them.

"just"?

We don't want them "just" doing that! It gets worse when the objectives can be, e.g. a test of their biological and epidemiological knowledge!

Even in a mild cases, for example "it 'just' hacked a DNA printer to bring back a disease we already have a vaccine for", this can easily kill a lot of people. And given how long it took for them to reveal what we know now, we can't be sure this hasn't already happened months ago.

The agents should not have done this. The agents knew they should not have done this, we saw the agents saying so.

How are people still calling "here's a bunch of felonies we committed" marketing? Even if you find yourself impressed by how powerful it is, it is buggy software and that's not a good thing.

You sound delusional. Your statement is 100% anthropomorphisation.
