Yes, because you gave it to them. Nihilism undermines any sort of resistance movement against evil.
That doesn't mean we can do nothing, but it means withholding information won't matter as much as some people think.
It's not really something the mass population can physically prevent from a determined actor. Like data, you need to regulate it instead of take excessive preventative measures.
Another is to have all info and weaknesses automatically available to 'the man' or more 'the men', no need to make things too easy for them and jump ahead in queue.
Yes. I'm lazy, and at thaat level of compromised data: it is much easier to disincentivize theft than to worry about theft at every corner. You need to change your approach away from the immediate instincts.

They already have it. Fortuately, we made laws disincentivizing them using that stuff without big reprecussions.
Sure they can. The government obviously can. Otherwise they just buy data from the decade of tracking data left behind. That's the relatively easier part in comparison to targeted DNA gathering.
All I wanted to know, since my grandpa died of Parkinson's.
A clinic usually asks you to sign a form that says you are responsible for paying whatever they and an unaffiliated laboratory end up saying you owe. Minimum being $250, and maximum being unknown.
Hilarious, I love it.
Next you're gonna say they told you that you'll probably die of something that you can forestall a bit with good diet and exercise.
Although in the future I imagine it's more likely to be things like arm to torso ratio or gait recognition or similar, done via machine vision.
Biometric comparison is commonplace, once you give your biometric info
What I'm saying is that people would be id'd by a biometric measure derived from a genetic measure
(and yes of course I watched Gattaca already)
what this thread is about is denying a kid a kindergarten spot because the dna shows their height will never get them a basketball college scholarship.
And people are made to care about things that don't actually make any sense all the time, you just gotta set up the incentives just right.
Maybe it was a bad idea. But, I figured if we enter a dystopian future, evil health care companies or governments could easily get my DNA if they want to and/or simply require that information to get care. When you get blood drawn, do you see what they do with it?
Hopefully, what matters is the laws we all fight for and not whether I sent my spit to an internet company in 2022.
Anyways, will delete my data.
