A survey form was created and distributed using online platforms and physical surveys (handouts), verdicts on the aspects of the technology were asked, and their personal views of the pros and cons of the technology itself. Voices around the world of a diversity of demographic backgrounds and professions were collected. It was found that more than half of the respondents will not participate in this technology leaving the other half, where the majority of them would only utilise the technology only for therapeutic purposes while the minority would venture further in using the technology for non-therapeutic purposes. In overall, the results show a bias towards negative in legalising the technology.
