Potential discrimination by employers or insurance companies using genetic data.

This is the most commonly raised ethical concern because genetic information could be used to deny employment, raise premiums, or refuse coverage. Privacy, confidentiality, and legal protections (e.g., GINA in the U.S.) are central to addressing this risk, though gaps remain (for example, life and long‑term care insurance are often not covered).
