Visto l'accordo tra 23andMe e GSK (<https://www.wired.com/story/23andme-glaxosmithkline-pharma-deal/>), questo mi pare rilevante: <https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2018-06-15/deleting-your-online-dna-...> In the name of journalism, I have spit into a lot of test tubes. I’ve sent samples of my saliva to Ancestry and 23andMe Inc. <https://www.bloomberg.com/quote/8142214Z:US> to find out about my heritage <https://gizmodo.com/how-dna-testing-botched-my-familys-heritage-and-probab-1...>; mailed my spit to Helix for insight into my athletic ability <https://gizmodo.com/the-search-for-the-olympian-gene-1822975337>, diet and sleep patterns <https://gizmodo.com/i-tried-a-bunch-of-dna-tests-and-all-i-got-was-a-bunch-1...>; and uploaded my DNA to the website of a startup that said it could craft a skin care routine <https://gizmodo.com/i-tried-a-dna-optimized-skin-care-routine-and-i-was-all-...> genetically optimized to give me perfect skin. Overall, I’ve shared my genetic information with nearly a dozen companies. You might call me an oversharer. [] Recently, I started feeling uneasy about how freely my DNA**data flowed. So I decided to try to erase my DNA data footprint from all the websites and databases and laboratories in which it was stored. It turns out that isn’t so easy. When you send your DNA to consumer genetic-testing companies, the sample**typically is stripped of identifying details and sent to a third-party laboratory. There, DNA is extracted and purified from your saliva and analyzed. Then the anonymized**data is stored and the sample is stashed for future tests. Most companies’ privacy policies and terms of service assert the right to share data with business partners or law enforcement, if compelled. If you agree to take part in research, your information can be shared with groups involved in scientific studies. [...]
