  • Summary/Abstract: Biohacking, a burgeoning movement within the realm of DIY biology, represents a significant intersection of technology, ethics, information systems and personal empowerment. This scientific article explores the multifaceted dimensions of biohacking, with a particular emphasis on its manifestations and implications in Europe and Latin America. By examining the regulatory frameworks such as the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and their impact on biohacking practices, this study delves into the ethical considerations, technological advancements, and socio political influences shaping the biohacking landscape. Through an in depth analysis of grassroots innovations in Latin America and established biohacking hubs in Europe, this article underscores the potential and challenges of biohacking in fostering innovation, addressing local and global issues, and navigating the complex interplay between individual autonomy and regulatory oversight. This study highlights pressing concerns such as biopiracy, where indigenous genetic resources risk exploitation without equitable benefit sharing frameworks, and cybersecurity vulnerabilities, particularly in Latin America. The article also examines biohacking’s potential to drive sustainable innovation while emphasizing the need for harmonized global legal frameworks to protect indigenous knowledge and address environmental governance gaps.
