It really struck me, because I’m a biochemist with a leaning towards bioinformatics, and I hadn’t properly considered the impact of this until I read about this effort.
Oh wow, thanks for that link. I wasn’t really aware of any of this. I think I usually gloss over the ethics of these studies despite having gone through biomedical data storage ethical training. Glad to read about someone who takes this seriously and fights the good fight.
