I wonder what % of people are in a DNA system. If you have enough, it would be easy to track down criminals who are related to someone in the system. Or of course, it could be used possibly in some more nefarious way.

A few years ago a few of us related types were considering doing the genealogy dna search on each senior adult member in the various family history trees.
Interestingly, two retired medical people relatives in different states with different family trees, urged us not to do it. Not so much for us old goats but to protect our younger generations from some rich Opecker Prince or South American dictator, wanting a body part with a certain blood and genome types. So we didn’t do it. They, also, said not to use the so called health screening DNA test profile for the same reason.
A year or so later, I discussed this with a retired FP. He is one of those crusty types, who doesn’t trust Republicans, Rats, Libertarians, Greenies or any organized political party. He laughed and said that anytime you have an operation or physical and have blood tests run, you are in a DNA database somewhere and probably several here and around the world. He said DNA samples probably bring in more illegal money than aborted baby parts. He was/is probably correct with his advise.

The opposite side of this in Californicator land is how our legislature has refused to provide funds and DNA help to identify thousands of dna samples from rape victims.
The liberals have controlled our legislature for a long time and Moonbeam has been our rerun governor for a long time. Yet these liberals that fund anything for illegals and criminals have not released funds to do DNA search on the backlog of rape cases.
So, whom are they protecting by not getting the DNA identified in those rape cases?
