There needs to be legislation enacted to strictly control how this information gets used. __Furthermore an individual should be allowed to control how that information is shared and be able to opt out of any scenarios they are not comfortable with.__ Emphasis mine... because I wonder, even if individuals opt into various things, what about their descendants? It's not too hard to imagine a family tree with people opted-in but a descendant who doesn't want their information to be available -- but the general risks/predispositions would be. I haven't seen anyone talking about the issue of privacy with respect to inheritance yet.
