That is so much more wild than i even imagined after reading the title. This could absolutely be abused to predict any lifelong genetic illnesses you might have and completely fuck your health insurance chances / rates before you even leave the hospital as a newborn. It could be used for good, but we all know that is not what healthcare companies and capitalism care about.
I guess GATTACA never got dubbed into Greek, huh?
