    49 \item DNA data is very sensitive and can easily violate the
       
    50       privacy of (living) people. To get around this, two
       
    51       scientists from Denmark proposed to create a
       
    52       \emph{necrogenomic database} which would record the DNA
       
    53       data of all Danish citizens and residents at the time of
       
    54       their \emph{death}. By matching these to information
       
    55       about illnesses and ailments in life, helpful evidence
       
    56       could be gathered about the genetic origins of diseases.
       
    57       The idea is that the privacy of dead people cannot be
       
    58       violated.

    60       What is the fallacy behind this reasoning?
