Personal experience. Unlike most, I have been wrongfully convicted on fabricated evidence but never denied insurance coverage.

I strongly encourage you to get in the habit of proofreading your posts for tone. You write with pique, a habit I find familiar, as I used to do the same when I was younger.

It’s not just what you say but how you say it, and tone can either further your contribution or get in the way.

I’m sorry my use of “imagine” offended you. I did not intend for that to be a slight, but I apologize that it came off that way nonetheless. I intended it to be an advance acknowledgement of the fact that it may be difficult to prove the government as a whole has intent to use DNA in questionable or “nefarious” ways. I was simply asking your reasons for making such claims.

I know the government does crappy things sometimes, even things that contradict its own laws. I’m still curious, piqued if you will, about how DNA can be used by the government against me, what things I/we should be potentially concerned about.

Personal experience is fair. It’s also the reason I lean towards fear of DNA being used against me by private for-profit companies more that I worry about the government.
