Your DNA is extremely similar to your close relatives. Those murderers found through 23 and me data? They didn't submit their DNA, their family members did.

You are contributing to it though. You also added your entire close family to the searchable registry by submitting your DNA. It reads like 'people like me are out there and don't care, so if you do you have to move to the remaini
