About this event
Are you familiar with the genetic testing business? It's huge in Western countries! How about in China? It brings up a lot of questions! What secrets lie hidden in your DNA—and who else might be reading them? As genetic testing services like 23andMe (if you haven't heard of it, don't worry, Christina is happy to take you through it!) become more popular, millions of people are unlocking information about their ancestry, health risks, and biological traits. But with that knowledge comes a crucial question: what happens to your genetic data once it's shared? Can something as personal as your DNA ever truly be private?
In this discussion, we’ll take a closer look at the 23andMe case, exploring how this once-celebrated biotech company became a cautionary tale in data privacy. We'll unpack what these tests can actually reveal, why so many people are eager to take them, and the legal and ethical issues that emerge when your most personal information becomes a business asset. Let's examine the science, the history, and the real-world consequences of putting your genes online.
你对基因检测行业了解吗?在欧美,它已经是一个庞大的市场!但在中国,这个话题还远远没有普及开来。你的DNA里藏着多少秘密?而又有谁,可能正在偷偷读取它?随着像23andMe这样的基因检测服务越来越火,数百万人开始解锁自己的祖源、健康风险以及生物特征。但随之而来的,是一个极为关键的问题:你上传的基因数据,到底归谁所有?你的DNA,真的有隐私可言吗?
这次,我们将围绕23andMe展开分析,看看这个曾经被吹上天的明星生物科技公司,怎么一步步变成了数据隐私的“反面教材”。我们会一起聊聊这些检测到底能测出什么,为什么这么多人愿意提供自己的基因信息,以及当“你是谁”变成一项商业资产后,我们将面对哪些法律与伦理的挑战。一起看看科学的前沿、行业的内幕,还有把基因交出去的后果。
