Understanding the 'digital supply chain' of providers that use your sensitive data for analysis or manufacture remains critical. Providers should be transparent, *especially* when this involves data crossing national borders. Users must be aware of how far their data travels.

@antonioregalado 'intellectual disability' is listed on their screen.... genetic markers with correlation here would likely work on both disease and lifestyle levels, same probably true for some autism markers..I'm not necessarily opposed to this but its worth watching as the train crosses track
@antonioregalado Also, consensus opinion with scientists/bioethics committees... is that we can intervene with life threatening disorders but not with lifestyle enhancements ... the wording i saw from company doesn't seem to distinguish or draw any hard line between those groups.
