Think having your "identity" stolen today is bad? Imagine the future when they take your genome.
"Take" - I'm more worried some BioTech will patent my own genome.
It's a likely scenario that there will be patents placed on manipulation of your own genome. Imagine finding out that you could reduce your chances of cancer by 50% but you'd have to use a genetic altering treatment that is patented and costs $100,000. It's coming.
