Sold my dog’s DNA to the Chinese, no regrets
In this brief excerpt from Jason Levin’s YouTube video, three speakers engage in a tongue‑in‑cheek conversation about the commodification of biological samples and genetic information. Speaker A references 23andMe’s alleged sale of user data to Chinese entities and suggests that they could similarly sell collected medical data to a Chinese buyer. Speaker B jokes about bypassing a “billion‑dollar exit” by simply acquiring biomedical materials and even mentions swabbing a person’s anus as a crude data‑collection method. Speaker C, after an initial upset, expresses tentative optimism that the plan might actually work. The dialogue mixes sarcasm, crude humor, and a flippant attitude toward serious ethical concerns surrounding the sale of personal genetic data to foreign parties.
