One of these days, it’s virtually assured, DNA will be universally used for ID purposes. I think it’s hilarious, that so many are signing up and actually paying others, to catalog their DNA profiles, family histories and backgrounds, when identity theft is rampant and privacy, a thing of the past. Your personal information, is one of the highest ticket/best selling items on the market, these days. ie: https://www.cbsnews.com/news/the-data-brokers-selling-your-personal-information/ and(more nefarious): https://www.experian.com/blogs/ask-experian/heres-how-much-your-personal-information-is-selling-for-...
Big Data, Big Brother
Forget privacy in this digital age. While looking online at an item on Crutchfield’s site, I called their customer service for more info. Without asking me any questions, the sales rep knew exactly which item and which webpage I was looking at. I’ve never done business with Crutchfield before - meaning they wouldn’t already have my info in their database. If marketing software can do this, just think what black hats can do. Pretty scary stuff.
