I'm sure that's not going in the marketing campaign

MANY of us can't easily trace our roots for various reasons. I understand that MANY have an issue with Mormons and the government but I'm still not understanding what MANY believe Mormons or the government will do with their saliva that will be harmful. No offense but it comes off as being fearful just for the sake of being fearful.

We've willing given up a lot more through the advancements of technology. MANY of us have phones that uses biometrics in the name of privacy and security. MANY of us use Facebook and they have facial recognition software that is able to easily identify us. We have no issue with these things.

I'm happy to find out that I can celebrate just about every holiday and that I can be offended by MANY more ethnic slurs.

The Mormons only do this ancestry shit because they want to baptize your dead relatives as Mormons.

EDIT: Oh, and isn't there a big pipeline from the Mormon Church to the FBI and CIA? That's cool.

What will they do? Don't they already have more information than they've ever had? Why aren't our biometrics a problem? Do we trust Samsung and Apple more?

There's no sense in distinguishing between private and public sectors on this. If the government wants what Apple/Samsung/Facebook/Google has, they'll take it.

its the whole purpose of their ancestry obsession. look i'm a christian, we got wierd stuff too so who am i to throw stones but its really weird.

technology footprints is a bit different than dna. i also think we are way more willing than we should with that too. if i had no idea my heritage i see the attraction. for shits and giggles, pass.

I'm lucky in that my GGGG Grandfather founded Downers Grove, so if I wanted my family history on my dad's side it's all at the Downers Grove Historical Society. I'm unlucky in that because of that relation, my middle name is actually Downer.

Also, have fun with your "random" TSA patdowns

Hey Nas, can you get me your bank account number? I promise not to do anything with it.

I'm envisioning a commercial for AltRightAncestry.com where it has the ukelele-n-glockenspiel music and people holding up their results about how they're 25% Lithuanian and 6.25% Dutch and 3.125% Albanian, then they get to the black guy holding up his results and saying "well, mine just says the n-word on it."

I assume there are presently many ways to mess with me that I am ignorant of and many more that are being developed.

Is it just your saliva that you react this way about? Is it the company that makes you suspicious or are you suspicious of everyone?

What criteria do you use to decide what person or company to freely give personal and identifying information to?

Damn, she's fine

It's really a question of my need.

If you weren't aware that you were "99% pure blood" or you couldn't trace your roots, you might see it as a need?

If it were a need, I would go through a doctor.

There is no such thing as pure blood anyway.

How would your PCP or anyone else be able to perform the same task without the reference database of a company like Ancestry DNA? Ultimately you're going to rely on people who you don't know or trust not to abuse the data they've collected. This is always true whenever we take calculated risks.

I was just quoting something you said earlier in the thread.

I know but as an aside I don't believe in pure blood. I know my parents, grandparents and great grandparents. I can trace both sides back from the US to a single "country" but that country has not existed at times and has always been a popular object for invaders.

As a double aside, we have these discussion about race here. I don't think they will be resolved through institutions or society (at least the way society thinks). I think it will be resolved the same way ethnic identity has been. We are a couple of generations away from a multi racial demography. Now those arguments are going to be the fun ones.
