A member of the U.S. House Intelligence Committee warned that bio-weapons are being made that use a target’s DNA to only kill that person.
Speaking at the Aspen Security Forum on Friday, US Rep Jason Crow of Colorado warned Americans to not be so cavalier about sharing their DNA with private companies due to the coming of the new type of weapon.
‘You can actually take someone’s DNA, take, you know, their medical profile and you can target a biological weapon that will kill that person or take them off the battlefield or make them inoperable,’ Crow said.
The congressman said the development of the weapons is worrisome given the popularity of DNA testing services, where people willingly share their genetic mapping with businesses to gain insight on their genealogy and health.
‘You can’t have a discussion about this without talking about privacy and the protection of commercial data because expectations of privacy have degraded over the last 20 years,’ the Democratic lawmaker said.
‘Young folks actually have very little expectation of privacy, that’s what the polling and the data show.”
Crow, a former Army Ranger who served three tours of duty in Iraq and Afghanistan, continued: ‘People will very rapidly spit into a cup and send it to 23andMe and get really interesting data about their background.’
Democrat Party makes the Bio-weapons !!!!
That is what BARRACK HUSSAIN OBAMA and SUPREME COURT JUDGE SOTOMAYOR begin and accomplished with OBAMACARE. The MARXIST DEMOCRATS is forcing medical records to be computerized so they can be or presently being done in transferring you medical records at will to any one they want without your knowledge or consent. Tidal Health’s consent form when you go to the HOSPITAL you sign a form which gives them the right to treat you any way they want even if you disagree or refuse treatment. They will treat you any way they want whether you sign it or not. That violates your rights. READ THE FORM.
Nobody in their right mind would send DNA to an research facility they really know nothing about, just to find out who they might be related to. What will change with that knowledge? 23 and me is just like facebook, willing to sell you out for a few pennies. Don’t trust these scammers.
but wouldnt you want to know if you were related to GOD
???
Would a DNA test tell me that information 11:59 ? What a stupid comment.
