When companies like Ancestry.com and 23andMe first invited people to send in their DNA for genealogy tracing and medical diagnostic tests, privacy advocates warned about the creation of giant genetic databases that might one day be used against participants by law enforcement. ... Now, five years later, when 23andMe and Ancestry both have over a million customers, those warnings are looking prescient.If you've sent them a DNA sample in the past, it'd be a damn good idea to get in touch with them and have them destroy it.

If you're one of the Covidiots who believe that COVID-19 is "just the flu",
that the 2020 election was stolen, or
especially if you supported the 1/6/21 insurrection,
leave now.

Are You Dumb Enough to Send in Your DNA?
The cops have been asking the "send us yer DNA and we'll tell you yer ancestry" for samples of people's DNA.
