Who would've thought giving a private company your DNA data would be bad
Honestly wouldn't surprise me at this point if the whole thing was a psyop to create a database of future undesirables.
Conspiracy aside, this will 100% be used to do this in a soft-fascist neoliberal "oh, it's potentially too expensive to care for these people" way.
I would not be surprised if this data ends up being used in background checks or some distopian shit to keep people from getting jobs or whatever.
May even be some GATTACA style eugenics shit where people are denied jobs because of pre-existing genetic medical condition tendencies. It may be technically illegal even then, but that won't stop corpos from mysteriously not hiring those people.
JUST LIKE IN THE TREATS!
Both of my estranged boomer parents did this, and 23andMe pretty much have my shit without my consent. Super cool!Both of my estranged boomer parents did this, and 23andMe pretty much have my shit without my consent. Super cool!
Mine too, the fucking fascist chuds. All they found out is that they had multiple intertwined justifications for nazis to murder their ancestral relatives and they were still believed Hitler should have won WW2.
They have every American's shit. Most Europeans too. Spoiler, if your uncle and your random ass 3rd cousin got tests done, then you also basically got a test done. They don't need every single detail to draw a rough "good enough" circle around like "people with these genes in their family aren't worth the cost."
In my case, my sister and my dad, but yeah. Truly amazing results: they have genetic compositions you would expect from any random person with their ethnic backgrounds! This information was definitely worth eroding the privacy of our entire family tree.
My sister did that shit and the only information it gave was our parents’ home country, which we already know because they’re first gen immigrants
