What social legal and ethical implication of genetic testing


Problem

As a rapidly developing topic, genetic testing is considered as one of the most controversial business lines in our modern world. CBC reports that "Several DNA testing companies warn users that results could provide unexpected or unwelcome information, and not just surprises about ethnicity and unknown siblings. For instance, some people learn their father is not their biological parent. You may learn information about yourself that you did not anticipate, warns 23andMe, a testing company. This information may evoke strong emotions and has the potential to alter your life and worldview. However, this is only the positive side of this business. There are legal, ethical, and social aspects that require deep thoughts (watch the YouTube Videos "DNA Testing Companies Are After Your Most Private Data" and "Hacking Your DNA: The Big Business - And Risk - Of Home Tests | Think | NBC News")
