Medical, ethical and safety issues aside, I think obesity has been an issue in society for decades and has been trending upwards with no signs of stopping. This is the first thing I feel has really given the majority of society that has been suffering an extra tool in the arsenal of the healthy body toolbag. If diet and/or exercise were viable for the majority of people obesity would not have been trending upwards as it has. I think people are just desperate to get back to a healthy weight, not gain a super model skinny body. Unfortunately there will be people abusing it, people selling possible unsafe/ineffective products. I think the only way to counter this is like Steam (the gaming platform) answer to piracy being an accessibility problem, make it more accessible safely (like how cigarettes and booze is safely accessible even if it isn’t good for you). People should have freedom to choose their vices, make their own decisions and live with the consequences. Just like those you unfortunately gained weight have made decisions, those who want to further want to make decisions on how to lose weight (jab or diet) must bear the consequences
