The intent is rather irrelevant.<p>DNA and whole-life outcomes have been an extremely contentious conversation, but one that's worth having, and any actor with more data is going to be able to make more fruitful insights.<p>A person (or, let's be honest here, nation state) with a large collection of DNA sequences tied to real-life persons has two major advantages:<p>1. They can draw statistical correlations between what individual genes and gene clusters are associated with economic performance and which are not.<p>2. They can identify genetic susceptibility/vulnerability. More benignly to things like chronic addiction, gambling, alcohol, nutrient deficiency, susceptibility to environmental effects etc. In a more conspiratorial direction it can form targeting data for weaponized/tailored bioweapons once those make their way onto the public stage.
