I really do agree with this idea here. If you are a convicted felon, your DNA gets on file.

I absolutely do not agree with this, if I read it correctly. Having one's DNA accessible by anyone of the public? This is exactly what we want to prevent. Anyone can then test your DNA for various diseases and suddenly you don't have health insurance anymore, and you don't know why.
