for them to be searching DNA to "match family members or see if they have already submitted it"

it just seems fucked up to me

Especially after watching Styx's video on this sort of thing on the last case they did this with

They could download your dna profile and grow some of your dna (like a hair strand) in a lab, plant it somewhere and claim you were there

That’s why you don’t do dna testing from these website kids

Is that a surprise? Lol @Deleted User

Nope

I've always been really interested cause I want to see exactly where my heritage is from going back further then I already know, but this kind of shit just puts me off it. The potential crazy shit they could do with your DNA.

Especially since they just have it kept on file, no telling if they delete it even if you request them to.

Am not fucking surprised at all @Fulcrum010

People using 23 and me to prove how white they are are being played

Exactly

You just can’t trust them

The thing is.... What impact that will have on my life? 0

So, fuck it

When I looked at a lot of tests on YouTube it was mostly non-whites doing the tests wanting to find out information about where they are from

It's just... Irrelevant

Remember, 23andme got into troubles with the FDA for promising to spot markers genetic diseases. Because the tests they did couldn't actually reliably detect them.

Then they dropped it, and started saying shit about knowing your ancestors. And now we know that's bullshit too.

There is also a similar site that claims to be able to tell you your sports DNA profile, like what your body is essentially built for and whatnot

Brazilians are mutts anyway, who cares where you’re from other than from Brazil

@Deleted User
Well, Brazilians are mixed as fuck, and it seems like it's getting even more mixed

They're handing out "you have nigger genes" results to caucasians, just in case they might be white supremacists. And Scandinavian genes to blacks so they can claim WE WUZ VIKANGZ AND SHIT.

Brazilians are a mix of blacks hwites and Japanese

That was only 23&me though apparently @DanielKO

@Deleted User
Italians, Germans, portugueses and I guess that's it

Smart anglos stayed away 😏

Lol

Indeed, AncestryDNA has so far only been guilty of selling DNA data from its customers.

Hope you don't have a genetic predisposition to a hereditary disease, kid; your health insurance already raised your premium.

@DanielKO
This would be actually useful

Not this "muh heritage" thing

But, the police "magically cracking cases thanks to buying DNA databases" might actually do enough harm for these companies to get sued into bankruptcy, and forcing some DNA privacy laws to get passed.

Imagine that, if the police can't reliably use DNA testing, do you think a for-profit corporation is going to do it better? Considering their clients have no way to double check?

We cracked that case AGES ago

@Broo TulsiGang 2024 🇬🇧 🇺🇸 is news, not memes

Ok I'll delete it

was just a Joke man

Why is there conversation in <#377519739380957184>

That's been permitted since JDM merged the news discussion and the news posting channels

Yep
