> DNA leak

DNA was not leaked. ancestry only.

>someone dying by getting hit by a car is more serious than someone's SSN getting leaked.

yes, I don't see why the analogy is not valid anymore though. Analogy was about preemption, not gravity of the issue.

>If that's such a big issue, why hasn't more happened already?

Don't know, but we are running circles, my point is, we shouldn't wait for more to happen. I thought you got that.

[WendyTheWillow]

I don't get that, because we wait for people to do crimes before we punish them.

[illiac786]

again, I'm not talking about arrest or punishment.

I'm talking about prevention. Like "don't walk at night in this area alone".

[WendyTheWillow]

That rule is as a result of bad things happening while walking alone at night.

I know what you’re talking about, I just don’t think you realize how such things become rules. We very rarely, if ever, create preventative rules, and when we do the rules are terrible because we don’t know the issue well enough.
