Does anyone here participate in BOINC?

I ran it for years when it was still looking for E.T. in the SETI project. I never ran BOINC because BOINC aids fundamental academic research into e.g. protein folding and modeling, which requires ginormous computing power. The results of that research are subsequently sold for relative peanuts by the universities involved to big Pharma, who then turn around and sell it to the public, as medicine, at obscene prices and profit margins.

I don't feel like financing my own exploitation, or their coffers.
