NA Is All Over the Place, Raising Privacy Concerns</a> [vice.com]<br>
Every environment on earth contains environmental DNA (eDNA) fragments f=
rom nearbyt living things=E2=80=94including humans. A University of Florida s=
tudy found "vast quantities of human eDNA in samples collected from water, s=
and, and air," reporting that "the quality of the human DNA in the environme=
nt means that it can likely be applied to a whole range of beneficial medica=
l, environmental, and forensics applications." Becky Ferreira explains the p=
rivacy concerns, stating that eDNA "may also enable nefarious activities, in=
cluding surveillance of individuals or minority groups, or the collection of=
genetic information without the knowledge consent of local populations."
