Take my DNA please
Wow, self genetic testing kits. In a world that is paranoid about big brother knowing your shoe size, this is a whole new level if invasive information gathering, where the consumer gladly forks over 400 bones to get themselves on some sort of global DNA database. They are not even covert about it, other than the hook line about checking for some predisposition to disease. But somehow the idea of knowing my own genetic information is attractive to me, regardless of who catalogues my soul into their hard drive. My question is, what does Yahoo have to do with genetic information gathering? They already know my shopping habits, my daily stops, my food likes, my dating status? Now they want my genetic code? What's next, Yahoo DNA maps?
