And why isn't it regulated?

I guess a small (0.04 inch) weird thing that might collect mirco plastic in the ocean is a nice goal. But it seems to have an innate desire to reproduce and make more of itself. What's next? It decides that the DNA of other living things might be great to add to the blob.

Next up it attached crab claws. Humans are doomed.

Wait, maybe it will buy and play Cutlass. Make some of those blobs, page-turners.
