We aren&#x27;t in California. We opted for this kind of generic screening even with informed consent.<p>I think people should be given the choice, but detecting over 65 diseases from one pin prick is very good &quot;value.&quot; If they&#x27;re using that data in an anonymised form for research, meh, whatever.<p>I do have some minor concerns related to police use of the data, as police have a history of misusing DNA and or misunderstanding the significance of a match or partial match. People have been convicted ONLY based on DNA and supposition, and that isn&#x27;t scientifically sound.<p>Plus who knows when we&#x27;ll get all Minority Report&#x2F;Gattaca and start trying to predict crime&#x2F;health&#x2F;intelligence based on DNA.
