Abstract
|
|
|
|
Biohacking is an activity that transforms existing life by utilizing biometric information centered on DNA information. Those who do this are called bio-hackers. In this paper, I would like to focus on the discussion of DIY biohacking. As shown in the emphasis of ‘DIY’, it can be seen that the object of transformation in the activity is his/her self. This is why the ethical implications of DIY biohacking should be examined. For this, I would like to focus on John Stuart Mill’s autonomy. His concept of autonomy can be said to have the characteristics of relational autonomy. With that, individuals who implements DIY biohacking will be able to promote his/her moral development and social development together.
