Your nationalism won't save you from this.

  Any government is free to restrict such practices within their borders. And in a functioning democracy the government is the collective will of the people, meaning there is only a limited band of decisions they will likely make. I think it's fair to conclude that countries like France wouldn't allow hiring decisions or insurance premiums to be influenced by genetic markers, while the US might.

    Show me a rule and I'll show you a corporation that not only breaks it, but does so willfully and without remorse. No country is free from this, especially not in Europe.

    Are you really willing to bet that the political system in France will never change, not just in the next few years but for your whole lifetime and that of your children or other direct relatives? Once you DNA information is out there, it is basically impossible to retract. If history teaches us anything then that political change can come very abruptly and is hard to predict. Just look at the Balkan, where people went from peaceful neighbors to ethnic cleansing basically over night.
