I agree with Frank and Edison. & I haven't taken any Dna tests, and most likely never will. Because I don't think that the genetics of myself or my family members need to be online, or stored in any company that can just do whatever they want with these infos, including but not limited to...looking for potential criminals by authorities, without proper evidence to start with, that leads to search warrants first and foremost.
On the side of Genealogy...maybe I just don't belong in this era, because I have a firm standing belief that your paper trail is your documented & legally documented proof of who you or your relatives are, adopted, or not. shoving ppl together based on just genetics, doesn't make it all reality. There are plenty of situations in this last couple decades alone, that prove that just by looking at "absent parent statistics"... just because someone biologically created a child, either thru willing relations, or thru a "lab-donor situation" or thru possibly something not so pleasant...it does not mean that all families out there want to see these kinds of infos all over online because some genealogist who may have been some distant relative or even close relative decided to post their genetics online for all to see..then poof... "hey.. thats my family, thats my dad, my mom, my sister occurs" and what has that done, to those who knew nothing about it or knew..but didn't want that info out in the public.. what makes it right for any of us to determine DNA determines parents and families.
I have a very generational set of blended families...blood doesn't make us family..our lives that we live together do. Blood and genetics don't make parents...people make parents thru their longterm actions. Paperwork, documents, images, family photos, family stories.. make up family histories..not some spit on a swab.
As for the pic above, I like the pic, agree with some of it..and I watch for new dna mtdna & ydna results and I post those infos in different places online...but I do it to confirm things I and others already knew, either thru documents or family stories passed down.
But I still think, Genetics of an individual should only be owned by their "person"...not held onto, kept or shared by companies, and not given to any agencies, law enforced etc...NOT without written consent of the person, whose dna it is, unless (in the US constitutional law prevails in the decision, and enough probable cause is given and warrant is issued. (btw..no, noone in my family that i know of is guilty of any crimes, but I've seen too many cases in my life, of...blame the easiest mark and close the case without any probable cause, or actual evidence). DNA is not proof of Familiar Relationships, its biological only. Anyone can donate the necessities to make a baby these days, and get paid for it... IT Does NOT make them Parents. jmho
