Has anyone had their DNA tested from a site like
23andMe? (know of any others?)
Apparently they can tell you a lot about where your ancesters cam from, possible health info, etc. However I've read some reviews that say what they got back was that their ancesters were from Europe and that for every medical condition known they have a 5% chance of getting it. Not too helpful.
Also there are the privacy matters. Some people have gone to truly paranoid lengths when sending for one of the testing kits. Fake names, mail drops, etc because they don't want to be placed into a DNA database from the feds.
