Maybe if the science doesn't use proper protocols to prevent errors. Also, if you know the science without oversight...it can be manipulated but that then gets into the ethics of the science. wrbtrader
How would you measure ethics of the science? Google offers this first: "The best way to measure the effectiveness of a company's ethical standards is to observe the results of employee actions. When the company is able to establish and maintain a loyal and satisfied customer base, management has a sure indicator that employees are treating customers ethically." But im not certain how many different best ways there are.
Maybe that's not the right question... The question could be how do you know when a company is not being ethical in their science ? An example could be @ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theranos Simply, when ethical standards are not being followed...usually the employees will whistle-blower, file complaints with a governing body of the industry group or someone gets arrested / fined. Thus, serious ethical violations tend to be criminal. wrbtrader
Yes exactly. The actual genealogy research of actual people yield far more accurate and meaningful results than some DNA testing that's based on databases of incomplete information. To me, at best, those DNA testing just provides you information that you already know at a cost and worse, you waste your money on getting something that's not even correct. LOL
What if there is no company? Would that automatically turn the science unethical if there is no public database connected to it? Panama papers for instance. But with panama it depends, maybe someone put all eggs in same basket...
I got one of those kits for X-Mas so I swabbed Muttley and mailed it in. Impressive results... they traced Zandy all the way back to the Founding Fathers. I just hope some of Muttley's kin on her Pit side never eat anyone, the last thing I need is to be on an episode of Forensic Files.
