RE: What I Learnt The Previous Week #2: Google Pixel Ear Buds, Interesting Facts about Pi, Nomophobia, The wonders of superionic ice and Dangers of Genome Testing

in #stemng7 years ago

For the last news, if people are putting their DNA on a public database... well it is public... Is there anything to be alarmed with? I don't think so. Just that people may not think enough about the meaning of the word 'public'.

On the fun facts, I have laughed a lot with the cell phone loss stuff :D

Sort:  

Yes. It is public but...

They prefer to stay anonymous

So, that's the worry....

I guess everyone these days are nomophobic.. Great "iron-man"

Is it public and anonymous? Then if they release the identity of the people... Isn't this a kind of violation of the general conditions?

Exactly. Which is what we have to be wary of... It could be very dangerous.....

Otherwise, another privacy scandal is underway.

I see... We cannot trust anyone today... However, as the release is here in one specific case and for the good cause, I am not sure.

Maybe, and we'd be hopeful too.
