I… actually think it’s a good thing when criminals are jailed? For example, if a family member of mine committed murder, I would be quite pleased if my DNA could contribute to the investigation, as seems to have happened in the Bryan Kohberger case. It seems to me that increasing the accuracy of law enforcement is a Good Thing, and I’d be happy to help.

Of course that is good. However, what happens when the so-called “criminal” is actually a non-criminal person that the government/powers-that-be deem a threat. Perhaps that person has made efforts to remain anonymous, then their cousin gave up their DNA. The “threat” then becomes de-anonymized and is targeted.

By this argument, nearly any government control is “good”. The reality is we live in a dirty, messy world. This isn’t a computer where you can stack trace and figure everything out. In general, we live in one of the safest, most stable times in the history of the world. Things are working “well enough” that we don’t need stuff like this.
