I am not a huge anti GMO but it just seems like it is a provision that serves no good to the general public. It is simply a benefit for the author and other like corporates. Why have the clause at all?
Pretty much because it safeguards Monsanto from something like what happened with the Alfalfa case many years back.
The thing that is kind of a drag is what you eluded to, “it is non regulated it needs regulation”. Now from my posts you could determine I am very much an anti govt, anti regulation type. Which is true. However in this particular case, it kind of seems to me that we are kind of going, well go ahead plant it, and if it is fcked up then the SofAG can regulate it. However if someone files a lawsuit because they found it was fcked up, then no dice.
It just seems… like if you can get the SoAG on board, then you can do whatever you like.
