Re: privacy – DNA contains a tremendous amount of information about a person. Although it is true we leave DNA everywhere we go, up until very recently that information was not recoverable. For the average person this is still the case and will remain so until the point that $20 DNA sequencers are available at CVS.
Logically, it should not be surprising that people consider this information to be private. On a more visceral level, it “feels” like a violation; but I think that’s something you either grok or don’t.
