Is there anyone stupid enough to hang their bare butt out for the world to see in a database like this, where in a couple years it could lead to your never being unable to join a health insurance plan again ever if you have the wrong sequences? I can see other potential problems like bio/nanotech weapons that target populations with certain markers and the data will help some nut who has God whispering in his ear to target whole ethnic
populations who are not chosen.So you would be painting a big target on that butt.

Truly, utterly spooky. All I can think of is that abandoned mine/factory where Mulder and Scully found rows and rows and rows of file cabinets full of this sort of data....gee, maybe spitters.com compensates its participants by sending them a little ID chip? Just what we need, Lojack for humans.
