  • Abstract
    Genetic monitoring has been the subject of science fiction for years, but with biotechnology\´s decreasing costs and increasing accessibility through "DIY bio" and community laboratories, it\´s becoming a reality. In this new world, the very things that make us human, such as hair, skin, and saliva, become a liability as we constantly shed them in public, leaving artifacts for anyone to mine for information.
