I haven't. I'd be more interested in testing my cat to see if she is a Bombay.

Yes, I've tested with Ancestry and 23andMe. It was nice to know exactly where my ancestors came from. Any surprises or interesting discoveries? With 23andme, yes, I was surprised to find a small amount of Southeast Asian in my DNA. I was expecting South Asian since my dad told he had an uncle that was 100% of East Indian descent.

I don't like the idea of some place having my DNA. I doubt they'll try and clone you. However, Hitler would have loved to have had your DNA. DNA as a modern concept didn't exist until the 50s when its structure was deciphered by Watson and Crick off the work of Rosalind Franklin.
But it's about the government probably getting it.

No.
I know my parents are my parents because we share some physical characteristics. And, I'm not interested in finding out my descent or who my great-great-great grandparents were or what they did.
I'm not knocking DNA testing. It could be useful depending on if whatever situation may call for it. For example, I read a long time ago about a couple trying to have kids. Nobody could figure out why the wife was having miscarriages. The doctors decided to give them a DNA test. As it turns out, they were brother and sister!
So, yeah, could be beneficial, but not something I need.

One of my sisters did a DNA analysis. The biggest surprise was that we have some Scandinavian DNA. I guess those Vikings got around more than I had realized.

Nope, I've never had that done. For those of you that have, what was the reason behind it being done?

Those tests are not accurate though. Different companies have different databases, and therefore the results from each company might say that you descend from a different set of nationalities/ethnicities. Or, the percentages from each company might be different.
