i didn’t send in my kit after my friend asked me ‘what if an insurance company uses the info”.
I had never thought about that angle and its a valid concern. Insurance companies are always looking for ways to exclude from having to pay claims and having to insure certain classes of people that they would deem a high risk pool.
Its scary to think about all the possibilities. For all we know insurance companies may already be denying coverage to certain people with a generic excuse when really they may know something about the applicant.
I try to avoid all databases anyway whenever I can mainly because of all the hackers that constantly trying to hack into various databases. Even if they claim they wont ever give access to anyone it doesnt mean they wont be hacked some day and the database ends up in the wrong hands.
