These genetic companies need to be held to a crazy high standard. I hate the genetic companies, I’ve avoided them like the plague, and I would never freely give up my DNA to any private entity. But everybody in my family fucking loves them, so it doesn’t matter. My genetic information is available on the Internet and there’s nothing I can do about it. I’m amazed that there isn’t even whispers of regulating this yet. And by the time somebody even thinks about regulating it, all the pharmaceutical companies will own all our genetic information and you could probably Google a DNA sequence and find anybody. The future is lame.
