Justice for the Cyborg: The Policy Implications of Robotic Prosthetics | Capital Commentary

Justice for the Cyborg: The Policy Implications of Robotic Prosthetics | Capital Commentary by Jason Summers.  MGB: I don't think the level of enhancement in technology is relevant to whether someone who is dependent on the technology is owed some level of protection for their condition - if only because most technologies are prone to occasional failure, as biological systems are as well.  The important factor is what is good for the person, even from a community perspective.  We should all have the desire to ameliorate human suffering, even if it takes unconventional forms.
