I guess I see a much more "federated" approach to the application of genetic mastery. The model I'd use is not Orwell but Bear. "Eon". There a proposal for incarnation is submitted to a local council and voted upon by the local community. Different communities have different values and are allowed them within the frame of a statewide constitution. Since everyone is on the Net (is the Net in many cases! Default state is incorporeal ...!!) the old trick of rule by an elite that controls information is void. Utopian certainly, but painted in a very human light. I wouldn't mind being in such a society. I suspect I'm posting ideas that I am deriving from a benign and vibrant model pained by Greg Bear - but my netfellows here are familiar with Huxley, Orwell ... Shelley. Seen in that context the perception of monstrosity is foregone. I want to say it (conscious feedback into progeny) isn't necessarily or even "naturally" monstrous. But it will require a much more "connected" society to really work out issues of geneticv governance at the local-thru-global level. Everywhere all at once, the full evolution of representational government by and for the citizens. Dunno if this makes sense.
