Why DNA?

It's the most solid proof they can have in finding that "somebody"

Looks like the privacy terms are pretty tight. The actual company that does the DNA testing, does not have access to your personal information, like name, but does have access to DOB.
Probably just a company looking to make a buck. Pretty good idea and they will probably be very profitable.
Agreed....but why go through a private service like this one? Most people have given blood at some point in their life at the doctor's office or hospital. Why not just "log" the DNA at that point?

Because that would require every doctors' office or hospital staff to be in on the conspiracy. With this company, you would only need a few people to know.
You wouldn't need every physician or hospital to be in on anything.... You'd only need the agreement of the company who houses the data. Or perhaps you don't realize that your medical history sits in a repository right now?

They have my DNA.... They send my test result back showing a whole bunch of stuff that is wrong with me, but there is nothing out there that will fix any of the problems, so, in the long run I'm still going to die.

Could all of these DNA samples be going into a DNA vault? Interesting to consider. It could make re-populating the world, after a cataclysm, with genetic diversity much simpler.
