Google and Facebook are pretty well-known examples of that, and they've been doing it for so long that nobody even bats an eye at their government compliance anymore. What people don't realize is that this situation applies equally to all major companies, not just the ones that handle our information. Sometimes, it involves our DNA, which is what Michael Usry Jr. learned when the police called him in for questioning in regards to a bogus hit and run incident. In reality, they were trying to solve a cold case involving the 1994 murder of Angie Dodge in Idaho Falls. So why did they think he was the killer? Because, his father's DNA, which was a very close match the killer's, had been submitted to Ancestry.com. The Sorenson Database, which is owned by Ancestry.com and stores over 100,000 DNA samples from around the world, gave up his father's genetic profile without a warrant or a court order.
