It is in the tradition of Terminator seeds developed by very high end
bio-tech researchers. These are `anti-piracy` seeds which give only
one yield and then do not reproduce. The bad habits of farmers to
share seeds and of others to share info needs to be contained. When
threats do not work technological solutions are there. Anyway IT and
BT are close cousins.
A host of new terms like audiocide, seedocide can now be coined!
