We’re All Suspects in a DNA Lineup, Waiting to be Matched with a Crime​

Whatever skeletons may be lurking on your family tree or in your closet, whatever crimes you may have committed, whatever associations you may have with those on the government’s most wanted lists: the police state is determined to ferret them out.

In an age of overcriminalization, round-the-clock surveillance, and a police state eager to flex its muscles in a show of power, we are all guilty of some transgression or other.

No longer can we consider ourselves innocent until proven guilty.

Now we are all suspects in a DNA lineup waiting to be matched up with a crime.

Suspect State, meet the Genetic Panopticon.

Is it possible to use the 23 and me type of places by giving them false identification data?

Or another way might be to swap samples with multiple other people, and everyone sends a sample from someone else. Then when everyone gets "their" results, they swap them back to the proper person.


I've never used their services due to privacy concerns, so I don't know the exact process, but if they have wrong ID info on a bunch of their samples, how can that help them and the gov? Nothing will match, and if in the worst case scenario someone gets arrested due to "their" sample, it won't actually match to them.
