Ah …LOL

“In new research they plan to present at the USENIX Security conference on Thursday, a group of researchers from the University of Washington has shown for the first time that it’s possible to encode malicious software into physical strands of DNA, so that when a gene sequencer analyzes it the resulting data becomes a program that corrupts gene-sequencing software and takes control of the underlying computer.”

Yep, encoding x86 instructions into DNA. Now all we need is a cell that can execute x86 instructions and we’ll have a some sort of Borg-like super-virus on our hands.
Oh, and I had better update all my gene sequencing software to make sure the “execute” flag is not set on any of the DNA binary files I have recorded.
