Ancestory sites

My question is why would anyone want to be in an online database with a profile that shows their entire bloodline? Isnt that a hitlers dream site? No thanks...

  • Yeah I remember 20, 30 years ago a company illegally used the DNA of a black or African family which they somehow successfully turned into a profit. It was a big court case, can't remember the name though

    • Law enforcement can access their databases through a warrant and say they find your DNA somewhere at a crimescene they can search for it and maybe your uncle or your cousin pops as a slight match and they know whoever did it is related to them. They look who his relatives are and eventually find you. This happens all the time.

        • They have access to see you through your phone camera and have all your online activity. Our phones record our every word. Everywhere we go is recorded. They know your entire schedule. They even have your DNA. Hitlers mouth is watering in hell rn.

    I have a cellphone with most of my data on it. If the government wants to know something about me, then they know it. Even without me getting one done.

    (I haven't used one yet.)
