Seems like those issues exist regardless of the actual technique used to modify the organism. Perhaps we should focus on those issues rather than arbitrarily banning one GMO while allowing many others based on how the genes where altered.

More powerful techniques exacerbate those issues, and more expensive techniques further concentrate power to a handful of corporations able to afford them. As the lobbies grow more powerful, fixing those issues will only get harder.
