Attitudes like yours are a large part of what is wrong with the world -
'People might makes mistakes so don't allow them to make decisions. In fact don't even allow them to have information because it might make them want to make decisions'.
You'd fit in really well with the Roman Catholic orthodoxy in the time of the reformation - trying to forbid people from printing bibles.

The problem is saying you have X, Y, Z markers which increases your risk for A, B, and C which is a medical diagnosis. I don't have a problem if they give you all the data but linking DNA with risk not something individuals are capable of evaluating at this point in time.

If these tests should be outlawed, then so should any site that allows you to enter in symptoms to see what might be wrong with you.
