Parasitism has nothing to do with will or even awareness. Technically, our gut bacteria could be considered parasites, no? Yet the best of ours even help the body last longer.
I don’t think so? Just looked up the definition of a parasite and it needs to live at the expense of the host. Gut bacteria are beneficial I assume, so they aren’t parasitic.

Oh. Well, anyway, awareness has nothing to do with it, at least.
