On one hand, it’s creepy as all hell that people are being found, not just by their own DNA, but by the submissions of relatives, and who knows where this can lead.

Yep, really creepy that the police can find murderers. Better that they can remain free and have the opportunity to commit more murders.

You didn’t read and you didn’t quote the other half of what I said... It’s basically what I said, it’s a good thing.

...and you don’t even know the creepy of it yet.

Think about all the personal data aggreggation that the big tech companies are doing on people (google, apple, facebook, etc) and the 3rd party companies (and state actors) that are culling it all together, and then consider that they will eventually (if some of them arean’t already) trying to supplement their gemology DNA databases with other methods of getting DNA samples. At some point in the future, private entities will know everyone’s genome and have all that paired up with everything they buy, everywhere they’ve lived, and everyone they have crossed paths with, particularly in the social media sphere.

Then consider the fact that almost everyone gets hacked at some point, and leaked to the dark web.

The future is, you will have ZERO privacy.
