Experimenting on the poor
Medical experiments on the poor and disenfranchised have contributed to science at the cost of untold pain.
Giving them experimental tech is a bit less ethically dubious.
Except for the bit where the article mentions that Microsoft tests its developmental products on the poor. Somewhere there are people scarred for life after their experience with the Vista alpha build.
FUNKY EXPERIMENT EXTRA:
The following is a must-see video of an early LSD experiment -- with kids! The kid who talks is wild, but check out the hair on his guy next to him!
