Now that is one advancement I'd deffinetley support. It actually has a valid purpose and one that benefits society.
The rest of them, on the other hand, are just an excuse for demented and inadequate minds to feel more powerful... like Arnold Schwarzenegger.

Most technological advancement were born with military purposes in mind, were funded by them, and later released to public.

PS: There's some strong language here and there...
