1st off, how do you know Lauren isn't a natural blond?
2nd. I got some bad news for you hun, they already have your DNA. In fact, they've got just about everyone in the entire western wold's DNA for the past 40-50 years. They put it in a giant database at birth. Hell, why do you thing they take two viles of your blood whenever you take a blood test.

The article is kind of a whitewash, but its the best I can find at the moment without doing deep research...due to google sanitising the search results on the subject.
I do agree with you however, you should not willingly give your DNA away to private companies to patent or do god knows what else with. My stupid aunt convinced my mom to do hers through ancestry a few months back while she was in Cali... she was on the other side of the country and there was nothing I could do to stop her. I was debating whether to do mine but if I do, It will be through a VERY private company or university lab, with strict contracts in place.
