oct 11, 2018 - Many Americans identifiable in DNA databases
Description:
Researchers discovered over 60% of Americans who have some European ancestry can be identified using DNA databases, even if they have not submitted their own DNA. This is due to genetic similarity between family members, some of whom will contribute to these databases. The gaps can be filled in using other sources of information.
