Murder and kidnapping have been illegal for eons yet that has never stopped governments.....and sometimes private corporations.....from breaking these laws with impunity.

Sign all the privacy laws you wish....it will change nothing.

This new privacy standard would include DNA databases where DNA swabbing "evidence" of individuals would be deleted completely from all databases around the world if an individual is never either convicted or charged with a crime right? Currently (as many may know), in the United States, cops routinely take DNA swabs from individuals and put it in their databases even though someone was never even charged with a crime. DNA profiles should be removed from all databases after 2 months if no charge was ever filed and after a trial ends if a person was charged but then found innocent. The world is becoming more and more like a police state isn't it?

It is essential that such apps that are known all over the world and have quite a reach into user's private lives be part of such efforts.
Unfortunately, the same cannot be said of the DHS, which seems to me to be a lot more interested in finding out how to circumvent privacy rather than respect it.
