Google will pay for your DNA and give you results.

Hehe I hope these people read the TOS very carefully.

If i was a conspiracy freak i would be really worried now. I mean its clear Google does everything to get all information possible of their users and this takes it one step beyond. I mean look at a few years ago where it was just a small search engine on an empty page to now with their huge widespread personal info sucking network. You would almost think its all part of a bigger plan with scary people involved.

Well it "technically" isnt google :winkwink:

I think it's the other way around actually, you gotta pay them $900 to find out about your ancestry and such

thats what i heard

but i heard its rather connected with estimating your susceptibility to diseases, I read about two such companies launching recently, one of which belonged to google founders wife. Though this article says they arent doing such disease-related interpretations of the results.

anyway, i'd never want to get a complete DNA test done, not even if they paid me $900 :winkwink:

thats not the way i like to spread my DNA around

my bad I did mean you have to pay them.

i think it's a very interesting idea. priced less than $1k it's tempting...

Lab rats ...

If they use it to make little me's then Id luv to giv them my DNA :D

that sounds odd

very cool, I would do it.

google is expanding like crazy these days

Its $999, I have looked into this and it looks great, they can tell you where most of your ancestors came from a long time ago. They can also tell for example that people with similiar genetic history have 10% higher chance of heart attack, or something similiar. There are a list of certain things they can check for.

Great informaion for insurance companies ........

$999 sounds really expensiveto me

God i wish I would have thought of that.

That data is priceless.

learning your susceptibility to diseases is a great thing. I would just register and pay under a totally different name

I would do it - It would be interesting....

As far as insurance is concerned I am a 37 year old gay bi-polar smoker. I dont need Google to tell me it would send me to the poor house.

skynet....

lol, you beat me to it!

google = skynet

DNA is worthless.

you can make a clone human embryo from just a simple skin cell.

Ha submit your dna and data let them store it indefenitely in their databank
track your whole fucking life and medical track record and have tons of kids
come knock on your door asking for child support money.....and all that for
just $999......I think I'll pass :winkwink:

very interesting but they can figured that out easily, I mean we're talking about millions of DNA.
